The Way We Were

[Verse 1]
Waking up in the night
I reach for your hand
You’re nowhere in sight
I feel less of a man
I want you home
I wish you’d come back
We could watch your favorite shows
With my head in your lap
I would laugh at all your jokes
So I’d never see you sad
I miss your warm embrace
And your cigarettes breathe

[Hook]
I guess life knocked us down
Love can pick us up
In the lost and found is where I found us
Got caught in the pourin’ rain
And up against the world
Just tryin’ find my way
Back to the way we were
We were
The way we were

[Verse 2]
When we first met
I thought you hung the moon
The only one
To remove my costume
I was standing there
Only wearing you
I wish you’d come back
To the things you knew
Wouldn’t drink as much
If that’s all it took
I would gladly give it up
To rewrite our book

[Hook]
I guess life knocked us down
Love can pick us up
In the lost and found is where I found us
Got caught in the pourin’ rain
And up against the world
Just tryin’ find my way
Back to the way we were
We were
The way we were

[Spoken]
Your guy is lovely. I just wanted you to know

[Bridge]
He’s everything less complicated
He makes more sense
Than I ever did
I was one minute off
He’s always on time
With the three words that I left behind

[Hook]
I guess life knocked us down
Love can pick us up
In the lost and found is where I found us
Got caught in the pourin’ rain
And up against the world
Just tryin’ find my way
Back to the way we were
We were
The way we were
