The way it used to be |
| I’m here, you’re there |
| Come closer, tonight I’m lonely |
| Come here with me |
| I want it the way it used to be |
| What is left of love? |
| Tell me, who would even care? |
| So much time has passed |
| I’d still meet you anywhere |
| Water under bridge |
| Evening after day |
| What is left of love |
| Here that didn’t drift away? |
| I can remember days of sun |
| We knew our lives had just begun |
| We could do anything, we’re fearless when we’re young |
| Under the moon, address unknown |
| I can remember nights in Rome |
| I thought that love would last, a promise set in stone |
| I’d survive with only memories |
| If I could change the way I feel |
| But I want more than only memories |
| A human touch to make them real |
| Another day, another dream |
| Over the bridge an empty scene |
| We’d spend the weekend lost in bed and float upstream |
| I don’t know why we moved away |
| Lost in the here and now we strayed |
| Into a New York zone, our promise was betrayed |
| I was there, caught on Tenth Avenue |
| You elsewhere with Culver City blues |
| Then and there I knew that I’d lost you |
| What is left of love? |
| Tell me, who will even care? |
| So much time has passed |
| I’d still meet you anywhere |
| Water under bridge |
| Evening after day |
| What is left of love |
| Here that didn’t drift away? |
| Don’t give me all your love and pain |
| Don’t sell me New York in the rain |
| Let’s leave our promises behind |
| Rewind and try again |
| What remains in time that didn’t fade away? |
| Sometimes I need to see |
| The way it used to be |
