เพลง The Way It Was

The Killers - The Way It Was

.

I drove through the desert last night

I carried the weight of our last fight

Elvis singing "don't be cruel"

And I wonder if you feel it too

It's like we're going under

.

Somewhere outside the lonely Esmeralda county line

The question of my heart came to my mind

.

If I go on

With you by my side

Can it be

The way it was

When we met

Did you forget all about those golden nights?

.

Maybe a thief stole your heart

Or maybe we just drifted apart

I remember driving

In my daddy's car to the airfield

Blanket on the hood, backs against the windshield

Back then this thing was running on momentum, love and trust

That paradise is buried in the dust

.

If I go on

With you by my side

Can it be

The way it was

When we met

Did you forget all about those golden nights?

The way it was

.

All of our plans have fallen through

Sometimes a dream, it don't come true

.

Darling!

Darling!

.

If we go on

Can it be

The way it was

When we met

Did you forget all about them golden nights?

.

If I go on

With you by my side

Can it be

The way it was

My heart is true

Girl, it's just you

I'm thinking of

Can it be the way it was?

.

Maybe a thief stole your heart
