The Way we Were

The way it was

We′re not the way we were

It's not the way it was

We′re not the way we were

I love you

A day has never passed that I haven't

I'm attracted to your imagination, beauty, and talent

Before I really knew you, I just knew that it would happen

Instant passion

Gave my heart although I knew it would flatten

And I just wanted to call, so I could listen

You told me that I do it wrong

I′m trying to do it different

I′m homesick

And f*****g everything I'm missing

But I tell you that I miss you

Asking who I think I′m kidding

And I ain't heard you in a minute, look

It′s got me thinking 'bout cabbin′ from this shitty club

Six hundred dollars in my pocket from the set

I swear I'd spend it all if I thought that it would get me there

Before we met it's like I sorta just knew

Didn′t get but could imagine it

I heard your first tune

And I wept while the room lit up with lighters

Couldn′t believe my ears

It's like they give up to a silence like I heard your tune for years

Everytime the world was quiet

I close my eyes and recognize those things I heard inside it

Lost it, tried to find it

We′re offset with the time

Until we spent hours starin' off to the horizon

Smokin′ rock and chillin'

Smokin′ rock and drivin'

From smokin' through the arguments

To smokin′ through the silence

We′re smoking 'cause we miss it

So we smoke so we can find it

Wanna smoke ′til we feel different

Yeah we're smokin′ while we're crying

And every time I f*ck up, he ain′t comin' back

Every single time he says I'm on my last chance

Then every time I try, he still tells me that I′m not

Says I ain′t spendin' time, but I′m spendin' all I got

Every time I f*ck up he ain′t comin' back

Every single time he says I′m on my last chance

And every time I f*ck up, he ain't comin' back

Every time I f*ck up, he ain′t comin′ back

Yeah, I can't believe we gave it all away

When I try to move on, it just ain′t the same

Don't get me wrong, life is good

And there ain′t no pain

But I've been thinking about you all mother f*****g day

I know you feel the same

And I ain′t sad that you with her

It don't change a thing

That what we had was just bigger than anything, everything

Man, just give me something

You were just like me, so I know you feel nothing

Remember that last night

Smokin' so much so we forget about the lying

Say we won′t lose touch

Now you ain′t fuckin' replying

But you in my blood

See through with me when I′m dying

See we made those cuts

You can even laugh at it

And I ain't goin′ back

And you actin' like you hate my guts

But that′s fake as f*ck

You feel that same damn love

And you can't tell me that I made that up

And every time I f*ck up, he ain't comin′ back

Every single time he says I′m on my last chance

Then every time I try, he still tells me that I'm not

Says I ain′t spendin' time, but I′m spendin' all I got

Every time I f*ck up he ain′t comin' back

Every single time he says I'm on my last chance

And every time I f*ck up, he ain′t comin′ back

Every time I f*ck up, he ain't comin′ back

I remember lookin' for you like I knew your face

Like I can see it in your eyes

I recognize just a trace

From the room when I first saw you

I just knew you′d been missin'

I had so many questions but I knew you in an instant

I remember you first every time I need a minute

Put you in my head and just get lost in it

And I meant every word

But I hope you didn′t listen

'Cause I didn't wanna say it

It just felt right

It′s not the way it was

We′re not the way we were

It's not the way it was

We′re not the way we were
