The Way We Were Lyrics & Chords By The Manhattans

Ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh...
Ooh, wee
Wish that I could wind
Like a spiral stair through time
With your body next to mine
Warm and satisfying
Wish that I could catch
A night train to the past
Climb aboard and hear you ask
Darlin', come inside, ooh... ooh... yeah
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me would we, could we
Memories
Light the corners of my mind
Misty water colored memories
For the way we were
Ooh... ooh...
Scattered pictures
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were, yeah... yeah...
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me would we, could we
Memories
May be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
I swear to God, we simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember
The way...
The way we were
Ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh... yeah... yeah
Ooh, wee
Wish that I could wind
Like a spiral stair through time
With your body next to mine
Warm and satisfying
Memories
Doo doo doo doo doo doo...
Ooh...
