Carrie Hope Fletcher - The Way We Were lyrics

The written word was just enough To keep us going when the world would get a little tough and, I held you up when winter came, And no one said a thing when everything became so very Complicated, Complicated, Complicated, They said. The spring held nothing but surprise, And all that we ignored was opened to our eyes and I said, "Then maybe we should settle down, Find a cottage or a tunnel underground." And we'll be Complicated, Complicated, Complicated, They said we would be Complicated, Complicated, Complicated, They said. Oh, I should have known. Oh, we'll have to go Back to the way that we were, Before we were us, Before I was me, Before we were Happier than I've ever been, Than you'll ever see. Cause that's the way it has to be, The way it has to be. We felt the Summer on our skin. We curled up in the warmth and let each other in and I asked, "Have you felt this way before?" You turned to me, said, "No. I'll be Forever Yours." And we'll be Complicated, Complicated, Complicated, They said we would be Complicated, Complicated, Complicated, They said. Oh, I should have known. And I said, Oh, we'll have to go, Back to the way that we were, Before we were us, Before I was me. Before we were Happier than I've ever been, Than you'll ever see. Cause that's the way it has to, I would push and you would pull away from me my heart would bleed, And I'd say things I didn't mean to try and get you back to me. We've bent the rules, played the games, And never said we felt the same. We ended things like we began, And feared what we became. So we'll go Back to the way that we were, Before we were us, Before I was me, Before we were Happier than I've ever been, Than you'll ever see. Cause that's the way it has to, Back to the way that we were, Before we were us, Before I was me, Before we were Happier than I've ever been, Than you'll ever see. Cause that's the way it has to be. That's the way it has to be, The way it has to be.
