Like It Was

Charley

Why can't it be like it was

I liked it the way that it was

Charley

You and me we were nicer then

We were nice

Kids and cities and trees were nice

Everything

I don't know who we are anymore

And I'm starting not to care

Look at us Charley

Nothing's the way that it was

I want it the way that it was

Help me stop remembering then

Don't you remember

It was good it was really good

Help me out Charley

Make it like it was

Charley

Nothing's the way that it was

I want it the way that it was

God knows things were easier then

Trouble is Charley

That's what everyone does

Blames the way it is

On the way it was

On the way it never ever was
