Aretha Franklin - The Way We Were lyrics
[Aretha Franklin - The Way We Were lyrics]
Memories like the corners of my mind
Memories misty watercolor 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
Oh can it be that it 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 laughter we'll remember
We'll remember whenever we remember
The way we were
Memories misty watercolor 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
Oh can it be that it 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 laughter we'll remember
We'll remember whenever we remember
The way we were
