Shirley Bassey - The Way We Were lyrics
[Shirley Bassey - The Way We Were lyrics]
Mem'ries like 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
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
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
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
