REBA MCENTIRE - Back Before The War lyrics

rate me

(dan hillkeith stegallrobin wiley)

Stacks of papermy name in bold print

Yours right besides it on this document

Too many lawyerstoo many angry words

So much we didn't sayso much we never heard

Do you remember

When I was all that you were living for

Back before the war

Chorus:

Back before the broken vows

The shattered trustthis empty house

When nothing really mattered but us

Back before we climbed too high

My dreams were yoursyour dreams were mine

Back before we fell so out of touch

Back before the war

Children's laughter trailing down the hall

Tiny footstepsGod how I miss it all

It's not as simple as who's right and who's to blame

How could we fly so high to be shot down in flames

Do you remember

When you were all that I was living for

Back before the war

Repeat chorus

Stacks of paperI guess this is where we sign

Strange how your signature so closely matches mine

I never dreamed our love would ever come to this

Avoiding each other's eyes still craving your tenderness

Do you remember

When love was all that we were living for

Back before the war

Back before the war
