The Way That You Were song Lyrics

Part of me is here
And a part of me’s not
Yeah, I don’t really know what’s there
Cause that part of me’s gone
Yeah, I’ve been stuck in a drunken haze
For longer than I think that I’d like to say
That I’m sorry for it all

Well I’ve been too drunk now
I won’t make my way back sober
I just fell down another
Dusty old road while I
Reminisce
Talk a little bullshit
Chalk it up to the way that it is
I just want to remember
The way that you were
The way that you were
The way that you were

There’s a child on a leash
Walking through the streets
Another cancer in the window
Bright enough to see
Through the shades that I left
Pulled shut for weeks
Yeah I think that I’d rather sleep
And i’m sorry for it all

Well I’ve been too drunk now
I won’t make my way back sober
I just fell down another
Dusty old road while I
Reminisce
Talk a little bullshit
Chalk it up to the way that it is
I just want to remember
The way that you were before us

Opened the door I
Let all the years go by
Into my life you burn out
Brighter than
These movie stars
They’re crashing cars and breaking hearts

We’re breaking bad now, yo
You could treat my heart like a trap-house, oh
You could do all this
You could do all that, So
Won’t you take my tears away
You save them for a rainy day
Parade me through the month of May
I would kiss her but she’s gay
But she’s gay

But I’ve been too drunk now
I won’t make my way back sober
I just fell down another
Dusty old road while I
Reminisce
Talk a little bullshit
Chalk it up to the way that it is
(To the way that it is)
I just want to remember
The way that you were

(the way that you)
The way that you were

I just want to remember
The way that you were before us

The way that you were
The way that you were before us
