Lyrics The Way We Were / Memories

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh wee
Wish that I could wind like a spiral stair through time
With your body next to mine
Warm and satisfyin'
Wish that I could catch a night train to the past
Climb aboard and hear you ask
Darlin' come inside
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh yeah
Can it be that it was all so simple then or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me would we
Could we
Memories light the corners of my mind
Misty water colored memories
For the way we were
Hoo ooh ooh ooh
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were yeah yeah
Can it be that it was all so simple then or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me would we
Could we
Memories may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
I swear to God we simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter we will remember
Whenever we remember
The way
The way we were
Hoo ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Yeah yeah
Ooh wee
Wish that I could wind like a spiral stair through time
With your body next to mine
Warm and satisfyin'
Memories
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Hoo
