The Way Things Used To Be

And I can almost hear your voice again

Hear you walk those stairs again

And I wish that I could turn back time

Back to when you were mine

I wish that everything could be

The way it was with you and me

I just wish again

For the way things used to be

Sunrise

I remember waking in the morning

To see you lying there beside me

And staring deep in my eyes

It was the only place to be

Beside you, was for me

But it somehow slipped away

And I can almost hear your voice again

Hear you walk those stairs again

And I wish that I could turn back time

Back to when you were mine

I wish that everything could be

The way it was with you and me

I just wish again

For the way things used to be

Moonlight

I remember holding you so tightly

And whispering in your ear, “I love you”

And kissing you so tenderly

It was the only place to be

To have you here with me

But it somehow slipped away

And I can almost hear your voice again

Hear you walk those stairs again

And I wish that I could turn back time

Back to when you were mine

I wish that everything could be

The way it was with you and me

I just wish again

For the way things used to be
