The Way We Were Lyrics

[Verse 1: Nichole]
Memories
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
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? Or could we?

[Chorus: Nichole]
Memories 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

[Verse 2: Natalie]
I would not replace
Or erase all our memories
Lessons given to us we learned unselfishly
So take this moment, take an extra breath
With respect for our time
Can't rewind
What's just meant to be
But now we gotta move on
We gotta stay strong
Celebrating us all night long
No regrets, don't forget
That our time together
Was truly beautiful
Theses memories will live forever
[Chorus: Natalie]
Memories 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
