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
