Keeping The Faith movie - The Way Things Used To Be lyrics

rate me

Song by Peter Salett<br /><br>

I've got an old friend<br>

Getting married this weekend<br>

It does not seem like I'll be there<br>

But I've been tracing<br>

Trying to remember<br>

Some of the things we used to care about<br>

When're you gonna save the corner/see every corner (?)<br>

Of a place I haven't seen<br>

When're you gonna have me over like<br>

<br>

chorus:<br>

The way things used to be (x3)<br>

<br>

I don't want it all back<br>

I don't mind where I'm at<br>

I've been trying to stand tall<br>

But I've been placing so much of my mind's eye<br>

Just trying to see over these walls<br>

I put in front of me<br>

When're you gonna answer a phone call<br>

I say I'm on your street<br>

I think we used to laugh into the morning<br>

<br>

chorus<br>

<br>

Most of the time when it fades away<br>

I don't really mind reshaping clay (?)<br>

<br>

I wasn't always such a sucker<br>

It's the sentimental me<br>

Maybe I'm blowing my cover<br>

But what I want to see<br>

Is the way things used to be<br>

Between you and me<br>

The way things used to be<br>

<br>
