THE WAY IT USED TO BE

by Stan C. Countz

You used to be a warm place to come home to
You used to be someone I could always talk to
You used to want me as much as I wanted you
Whatever happened to the way it used to be?

It used to be the sun rose and set in your eyes
It used to be that we never told each other lies
It used to be that we didn’t need no alibis
Whatever happened to the way it used to be?

Whatever happened to me and you and
The way it used to be; when I loved you
And you loved me; when will we get back
To the way it used to be?

You used to welcome me with open arms
You used to shower me with all your charms
Now we’re roomies so please do me no harm
Whatever happened to the way it used to be?

Maybe one day we'll learn to love and respect each other again
One day we can return to the way it used to be…. way back when
I was still your hero and you were my closest friend
Today I'm battin' zero and I'm at my wit's end...

Whatever happened to me and you and
The way is used to be; when I loved you
And you loved me; when will we get back
Back to the way , the way it used to be?
