The Way, We Were

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.
