The Way We Were


Remember the days of yesteryears
as I take you back to times almost
forgotten...

Due to the comments of my previous post - "Jopoy is 17!"
I decided to use the same medium of presentation.
Click on the "View Album" if you want to see the pictures
bigger and with captions. Don't forget to use "Slide show".


The Way We Were
-Barbara Streisand

(sing with me again...)

Mem'ries,
Light the corners of my mind

Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were

Scattered pictures,
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were

Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?

If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? Could we?

Mem'ries, may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember

We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter

We will remember
Whenever we remember...
The way we were...
The way we were...

(sing with me...)

Is this the little boy I carried?

Is this the little boy at play?

I don't remember growing older
When did he?


When did he get to be so handsome?
When did he get to be so tall?

Wasn't it yesterday
When he was small?


Sunrise, Sunset (2X)
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze


Sunrise, Sunset (2X)
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears


What words of wisdom can I give him?
How can I help to ease his way?
Now he must learn from me and another
Day by day


We used to look natural together
Just like Father and Son should be


Is there a canopy in store for me?


Sunrise, Sunset (2X)
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze


Sunrise, Sunset (2X)
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears.
