Back The Way lyrics

Back the way it was before

Before the door was opened

Back the way it was before

Before the ice was broken

Back the way it used to be

Everyone thought I was funny

But nobody ever asked me

If I wanted tiny little sandwiches

Sent up to my room

Back the way it was before

I was always waiting

Everyone thought I was okay

But now I'm scintillating

Back the way it used to be

Some people thought I was pretty

But not many passes were made at me

Back the way it was before

But now my prayers are answered

And my star is on the rise

Flashbulbs popping, traffic stopping

Everyone's my best friend

Back the way it used to be...

Back the way it used to be...

Back the way it used to be

Money was always a tyrant

I spent it all paying my rent

Back the way it used to be

But now my prayers are answered

And my star is on the rise

Flashbulbs popping, traffic stopping

Everyone's my best friend

Back the way it used to be...

Back the way it used to be...

Back the way it used to be...

Back the way it used to be...

Sing a song of yesterday...
