J. HOLIDAY LYRICS - The Way It Was

"The Way It Was"



[Intro:]

What happened to the day we were in love?

I wanna go back to the way it was



[Verse 1:]

Lately, you and me ain't talking much lately

And the way you act is driving me crazy

Cause somethings wrong

Talk to me. what going on?

Nothing. Everytime I ask what's up you say it's nothing

But baby I can tell you're fronting

Somethings on your mind

But you're acting like everythings alright, so why?



[Pre-Chorus:]

So why do you keep on pretending, that everything is still okay?

Don't you still want the happy ending? Don't you still want to be with me?



[Chorus:]

What happened to the days we were in love? When nothing came between the two of us

I wanna go back to the way it was

Why can't we go back to the way it was?

Do you remember when we were still friends? Now every other day's another argument.

I wanna go back to the way it was

Why can't we go back to the way it was?



[Verse 2:]

Slowly, without you here I'm dying so slowly

And I need you near cause no one else knows me

Not the way you do

And I can't breathe without you here

(It's obvious I need you)

And you need me

(What are we gonna do?)

So baby why can't we...

(Why can't we work it out?)

Isn't that what love's about?



[Pre-Chorus:]

So why do you keep on pretending, that everything is still okay?

Don't you still want the happy ending? Don't you still want to be with me?



[Chorus:]

What happened to the days we were in love? When nothing came between the two of us

I wanna go back to the way it was

Why can't we go back to the way it was?

Do you remember when we were still friends? Now every other day's another argument.

I wanna go back to the way it was

Why can't we go back to the way it was?



[Bridge:]

I'm tired (I'm sick and tired of fighting)

And inside (I'm dying)

I wanna do (Right by you)

By you (Girl what I'm saying is true)

I can't take losing you

Can we go back?



[Chorus: x2]

What happened to the days we were in love? When nothing came between the two of us

I wanna go back to the way it was

Why can't we go back to the way it was?

Do you remember when we were still friends? Now every other day's another argument.

I wanna go back to the way it was

Why can't we go back to the way it was?
