The Way We Were

He is beautiful

And oh-so wonderful

He knows how to make me smile

And my time always seems worth while

But I miss the way we were…

Narrowing eyes and blowing with rage

And storming home, writing and crying on the page

Spreading cruel rumours, smirking in vain

Causing a brawl and lots of pain

He is never late, always gets it right

Never puts up a fight

He is what every girl, ever woman wants

And I should be lucky that he wants me

But I miss the way we were…

Yelling and making every little thing complicated

Screaming and shouting until we’re both so frustrated

Chasing each other round and around

Until we’re both sprawled on the ground

He gives me presents, although it’s not my birthday

And when I’m quiet, he’ll say,

“What’s wrong?”

But he can’t tell the inauthenticity of my so called smile

And when I lie, he’ll believe it, and think I’m fine

I miss the way you’d…

Read me like an open book, see through all my lies

Kiss me hard to end our fights, assure me everything’s going to be alright

And now I can finally see that I wasn’t just your whore

We fought because we had something worth fighting for:

Our love

Now I regret giving up, the times are so tough

I regret giving up on you and our perfectly imperfect love

Because although he’s incredible

He’s just too sensible

And you and I both know that’s not how I do

I just want to turn back the clock and be with you
