lyrics

I miss the way, I miss the way it used to be
So short the sun’s time shining,
but the enchanted nights so long.
How we’d play, how we’d play like it was meant to be
Almost always falling into key
to make a lovely song
O, what magic we might have made,
had we never strayed
Such sweet sounds that still ring out,
I can’t keep them at bay

What a thing-
I must say it truly was a sight.
How could what once was so right,
go so wrong?
Oh, but still I love to say
what fun we had way back in the day!
Back when it was the way it used to be.

Oh what magic we might have made,
had we never strayed
Such sweet sounds that still ring out,
I can’t keep them at bay

What a thing- I must say it truly was a sight.
How could what once was so right,
go so wrong?
Oh, but still I love to say:
what fun we had way back in the day!
Way back when, not now, but then,
dear old friend, could we try again?
Make it the way it used to be?
