|
Mem'ries,
|
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
|
For the way we were
|
|
Can it be that it was all so simple then?
|
Or has time re-written every line?
|
If we had the chance to do it all again
|
Tell me, would we? Could we?
|
|
Mem'ries, may be beautiful and yet
|
What's too painful to remember
|
We simply choose to forget
|
So it's the laughter
|
We will remember
|
Whenever we remember...
|
The way we were...
|
The way we were...
|
