The Way It Used To Be Lyrics - Dream Theater

Feelin' sick once again 

I'd give anything 

To be back home 

Safe and warm inside 

I can't stand the crowds 

Or the smell that surrounds me 

The cloth and key 

Still preach chastity 

Take me back so I can see 

The way it used to be 

I lay down and enter a dream 

Unlike anywhere I've been 

All is silent and sweet

Then I'm falling down to the ground 

And I'm lost from what I've found 

Can't stand the sounds no more 

Take me back so I can see 

The way it used to be 

The way it used to be 

Move me from the water 

Too cold to swim 

Bring me to the land 

Move me from the water 

That I see within 

Bring me to the land 

Radio waves 

Splash through my head 

To a rhythm that I crave 

Radio waves 

Relive the moment 

Seems like yesterday

Take me back to Twelve Mile Bay 

Where I'll sit at the edge with my feet in the water 

Take me back as the sun fades away 

Break down the walls so I can breathe 

Move me from the water 

Too cold to swim 

Bring me to the land 

Move me from the water 

That I see within 

Bring me to the land 

Move me from the water 

Too cold to swim 

Bring me to the land 

Move me from the water 

That I see within 

The way it used to be 

The way it used to be 

Move me from the water 

Too cold to swim 

Bring me to the land 

Move me from the water 

That I see within 

Bring me to the land 

Move me from the water 

Too cold to swim 

Bring me to the land 

Move me from the water 

That I see within
