The Way We Were

Try to remember the first of September

When grass was green and all so mellow

Try to remember and if you remember

Then follow, follow

Can it be that was all so simple then

Or has time rewritten every line

And if we had the chance to do it all again

Tell me would we, could we?

Memories light the corners of my mind

Misty water-colored memories of the way we were

Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind

Smiles we gave to one another of the way we were

Can it be that was all so simple then

Or has time rewritten every line

And if we had the chance to do it all again

Tell me, would we, could we?

Memories may be beautiful and yet

What's too painful to remember

We simply choose to forget

So it's the last time

How we will remember

Whenever we remember

The way, ooh

I said the way we were
