when we were young
We used to have so much fun
We used to ho, ho, ho
We used to, oh, oh, oh, oh,
I remember, it's true
There was something about me and you
Oh, we used to, mm, ah, ah
We used to, mm, ah, ah, ah
We're having love
Well, everything was made for us
From the sun down into the dust
Yeah, everything was just like a film
We used to doubt that it was real
I used to think that every time we'd come
together the world would rhyme
But it's so strange how
words combine
While your eyes cry and
I'm out of line
How can I see what was happening to you?
So you asked me please
and what did I do?
Just carried on till you was gone
Do you need a professional?
Someone to rescue you?
Oh, the way we were
Oh, the way we were
Oh, the way we were
Oh, the way we were
Now I'll try and try and I'll
keep on trying
But every time I try to write a word,
apologize
I just get tired, I think I'm dying
And I cannot find the words inside
And then I might go back in time
When things were fine
and you were mine
I guess I hung the world
out in the wind
Out of the way we were
Out of the way we were
Out of the way we were
Out of the way we were
I love the way we were
I love the way, the way that we were
I love the way we were
I love
