Freda Payne - The Way We Were lyrics

M-M-M-M-Mem'ries light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored mem'ries 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 rewritten 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
