"the way things were" lyrics

"the way things were"

Peace is a memory to me
Finally free of the misery you caused me

You just don't know how to let things go
So they grow and they grow, until all that you know

Is the way that things used to be
All you are is a memory

I need you
I need you
I need you

All I need
All I need
All I need is the way things were

So afraid of falling I can hardly think of how I'd be able to love somebody else

Cause you left such an impact on me I don't even know how I could be expected to move on

When I love, I don't leave
But that's what you did to me
Now you're gone

And my friends, they all say
You were bad, full of hate
They're not wrong

I need you
I need you
I need you

All I need
All I need
All I need is the way things were

The way things were
The way things were
The way things were
The way things were
