Mem'ries light the corners of my mind
         Misty water-colored mem'ries 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 rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again,

                                                                                                                                                   tell me,
                                                                                                                                             would we,
                                                                                                                                                       could we                                                           

                                                                               Mem'ries 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.
