JUST THE WAY WE WERE


Smell of trains in my brain
I cannot afford this
and i cannot afford you
My brains awake it won't sit still
It's pacing up the walls
With you, with you

Take me to a river
Take me to a place
Wash away the sadness
Wash away your face
Turn us into soldiers
Turn us into stone
Or make us just the way we were

Fear of sleep and of dreams
Will i wake up screaming your name
Screaming your name
He said;
'Turn your head to the right'
and it was over then and there
When i saw you in that light
When i saw you that night

So take me to a mountain
Push me down a hill
Beat away the sadness
Beat away the thrill
Turn us into children
Turn us into bones
Or make us just the way we were

Ooh our days are numbered one by one by one.
Ooh and what will we become

Everything is different now
The moon
The stars
The trees
The sun
Everything is different now
But what's done is done

Is done is done
Is done...

So take me to a mirror
Take me to a place
Wash away the sadness
Wash away your face
Turn us into strangers
Turn us into friends
Or make us just the way we were

Get back on the bike now
Ride around the town
We'll make us just the way we were
Let us say goodbye now
Though not for long
We'll make us just the way we were
Just the way we were
I need you just the way you were
Just the way we were.
