The Way We Were Where Do You Start Lyrics by Maureen McGovern

The Way We Were Where Do You Start Lyrics

    ...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...

    Where do you start?
    How do you separate the present from the past?
    How do you deal with all the things you thought would last
    That didn't last?
    With bits of mem'ries scattered here and there,
    I look around and don't know where to start

    Which books are yours?
    Which tapes and dreams belong to you and which are mine?
    Our lives are tangled like the branches of a vine
    That intertwine
    So many habits that we'll have to break
    And yesterdays we'll have to take apart

    One day, there'll be a song
    Or something in the air again
    To catch me by surprise
    And you'll be there again
    A moment in -
    What might have been....

    Where do you start?
    Do you allow yourself a little time to cry,
    Or do you close your eyes and kiss it all goodbye?
    I guess you try
    And though I don't know where and don't know when
    I'll find myself in love again
    I promise there will always be
    A little place no one will see:
    A tiny part deep in my heart
    That stays in love with you
