The Way We Were - Solomon

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

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

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

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

Your guy is lovely.

I just wanted you to know

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

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
