The Way It Used To Be

You were always there to pick me up
Your words seem to be enough
I hope you knew I loved you even when
You felt like you were not enough

How I wish I could turn back time
But I know that you'll be fine

How I hope to see you smile once more
With the crooked smile that I adore
How I wish to make you laugh all over again
And take photographs of memories we had then
And if it were up to me
How I wish things would go back to
The way they used to be

I can't forget the way we used to sing
'Til the morning comes
Even when we were in trying times
You knew how to make it fun

How I wish I could turn back time
But I know that you'll be fine

How I hope to see you smile once more
With the crooked smile that I adore
How I wish to make you laugh all over again
And take photographs of memories we had then
And if it were up to me
How I wish things would go back to
The way they used to be

And I know you had a chance you didn't take
But i'm sure that you're happy
Near or far
There is peace in the choices that we make
If we know who we are

How I hope to see you smile once more
With the crooked smile that I adore
How I wish to make you laugh all over again
And take photographs of memories we had then
And if it were up to me
How I wish things would go back to
The way they used to be
