Lyrics

The Way We Loved Before We Parted

Stephen A. Brunette


I wasn't looking when you walked into my sight.
You weren't looking, but we held each other in the night.
Cozy in our distances, we gambled at love again,
but we hedged our bets and destined it to end.

CHORUS 1
I remember the way we loved before we parted,
I remember the way you opened up my heart,
I remember the way we loved before we parted,
I remember the love that left us where we are.

Maybe we came too far too fast, maybe we lost our way,
maybe we knew it wouldn't last, so we settled in old, familiar ways.
Reason and rhyme can never say who we were, or could have been,
our season and time, nights and days, are lost in way back when. . . .

CHORUS 1

BRIDGE
If we could turn back time, would we do it the same way,
guard our clever hearts and lock our love away?

You weren't looking when I walked into your sight.
I wasn't looking, but we held each other in the night.

CHORUS 2
I remember the way we loved before we parted,
the way we loved before we closed our hearts,
I remember the way we loved before we parted,
I remember the love that left us where we are.

I remember the way we loved before we parted.
