Pierre De Reeder - That's the Way That It Was lyrics

Do you remember when we were kids? And the way that it was Build a mountain of anything And look out from the top And bring a handful of rocks from school Put them in a secret place in your room But I don't know why we never think of ourselves that way We held the world in our hands by doing something that everyone does That's the way that is was You cover all of your tracks With pride, shame, and dust Living like your saving for When you're down on your luck But I know you're trying to get ahead You came over to me and said, "It's all OK." You're thinking about this way too much Your best friend, keeping your chin-up But the feeling faded away at the end of the day Hey, there are plenty of people I know Who don't give their worth They've said it's something they hide to outgrow But I gave each one hell because they won't say what's really missing for them But they wouldn't listen because That's the way that it was That's the way that it was That's the way that it was That's the way that it was That's the way that it was That's the way that it was
