That's the Way That It Was
Do you remember when we were kids?And the way that it wasBuild a mountain of anythingAnd look out from the topAnd bring a handful of rocks from schoolPut them in a secret place in your roomBut I don't know why we never think of ourselves that wayWe held the world in our hands by doing something that everyone doesThat's the way that is wasYou cover all of your tracksWith pride, shame, and dustLiving like your saving forWhen you're down on your luckBut I know you're trying to get aheadYou came over to me and said, "It's all OK."You're thinking about this way too muchYour best friend, keeping your chin-upBut the feeling faded away at the end of the dayHey, there are plenty of people I knowWho don't give their worthThey've said it's something they hide to outgrowBut I gave each one hell because they won't say what's really missing for themBut they wouldn't listen becauseThat's the way that it wasSongtexteThat's the way that it wasThat's the way that it wasThat's the way that it wasThat's the way that it wasThat's the way that it was
