The Way It Was

Intro:


I don t know how, but nights get lonely now

They keep appearing in my eyes, such a warm and tender glow

For just one moment, I remember all


The love we had, was never all that bad

There were smiles and there were tears

On that special starry night

With your arms around me, held on tight


Wasn t that the way, it was, two strangers reaching for

A worthless cause? Wasn t that the love, we shared

Or just the restless years, when no-one, cared

Intro:

I don t know why, it s hard to say goodbye

Or even justify the end, you meant so very much to me

Then to let you go, start my life again


The love we had, was never all that bad

There were smiles and there were tears

Till that special summer day, when I reached out for you

You just walked away


?Wasn t that the way, it was, two strangers reaching for

A worthless cause? Wasn t that the love, we shared

Or just the restless years, when no-one, cared
