The Way We Were Lyrics - Singles - Hall

This is how it began 

This is how it was 

When we didnt have a clue, now here we are 

It was long foreshadowed 

We didnt realize 

That it was our last chance, time to go inside 

You didnt say goodbye, you 

You rather carved these lines 

About your fears, about your anger and about your pride 

It was a bitter mixture 

And everything weve seen 

It built without a question on all that weve ever been 

Everything weve been 

Everything weve seen 

All that we had built on all that, built on all that we had 

Everything weve been 

Everything weve seen 

All that we had built on all that, built on all that we had been 

This is how it started 

This is how it went 

When we didn't have a plan, and it went bad 

Thats the way we were but 

The days arent coming back 

And still we are staying here, tell me why the heck 

You didnt say goodbye, you 

You rather carved these lines 

About your fears, about your anger and about your pride 

Everything weve been 

Everything weve seen 

All that we had built on all that, built on all that we had 

Everything weve been 

Everything weve seen 

All that we had built on all that, built on all that we had been 

This is how it was 

This is what weve seen 

This is just the way that we have been 

This is how we went 

Went through hell and back 

Burned our ivory skin and broke our necks 

Everything weve been 

Everything weve seen 

All that we had built on all that, built on all that we had 

Everything weve been 

Everything weve seen 

All that we had built on all that, built on all that we had been 

This is the road we went down 

This is the way we all know 

This is the path we must go 

This is the way 

This is the road we went down 

This is the way we are now 

And now we're dying alone 

This is the way we were
