Verse 1:
|
I got a song in my heart
|
Let me start with I'm over you
|
Still it can't hurt me to say very plain . . . I think about you
|
And the laughs and the jokes and the times that I shared with you.
|
I got this feeling for reminiscing
|
Wanted to take that trip down memory lane
|
But what is missing, is that you're not here to sit down with me
|
So I'm thinking these beautiful things all by myself.
|
And what's on my mind is...
|
|
Chorus:
|
Back when it was
|
Simple as breathing
|
Just the two of us
|
We were happy together it was
|
Easy to be in
|
Our relationship,
|
You remember when
|
You used to say you loved me so
|
Promised one time to never go away
|
And now you're gone
|
|
Verse 2:
|
The smile that you left me with, is the same smile I've kept on wearing
|
The smile's not so much tied to you
|
More tied to what we spent sharing
|
Simple little things
|
But it was all those simple little things that pleased me the most...
|
Need I remind you 'bout the good times baby
|
There were good times from the start
|
Good times in my heart
|
A heart that never lied
|
Remember back in '99.
|
When we snuck into the neighbor's pool and went for a dip
|
There were good times in the rain
|
Good times everyday
|
Good times Heaven knows
|
Remember that dirty little joke
|
Made us laugh all night long.
|
|
Chorus:
|
Back when it was
|
Simple as breathing
|
Just the two of us
|
We were happy together it was
|
Easy to be in
|
Our relationship,
|
You remember when
|
You used to say you loved me so
|
Promised one time to never go away
|
And now you're gone
|
|
Bridge
|
The joy you left me with, nothing stronger since
|
What we did together
|
I ain't felt nothing better since that time
|
Those were the days
|
The nights
|
****** The Hours *****
|
The minutes
|
The seconds
|
That you were mine
|
|
Chorus
|
Back when it was
|
Simple as breathing
|
Just the two of us
|
We were happy together it was
|
Easy to be in
|
Our relationship,
|
You remember when
|
You used to say you loved me so
|
Promised one time to never go away
|
