10th Day: The Way We Were

On the 10th day of Christmas my true love said to me "THE WAY WE WERE" (by Babra Streisand).

This song is 1 year older than me, yet classics like this never goes out of fashion. Never watched the movie, as I am not one who like to watch love stories. Yet this song never fails to invoke that sense of melancholy every time I listen to it..and so far no one comes close to Babra Streisand in bringing out the essence of the song.

Here is a toast to the way we were!!


The Way We Were
Lyrics:A.Bergman/M.Bergman 
Music:M.Hamlish

Memories
Like the corners of my mind
Misty watercolor 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 rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me - Would we? Could we?

Memories
May be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply to choose to forget

So it is the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember
The way we were

So it is the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember
The way we were
