Gilbert O'Sullivan - The Way Things Used To Be lyrics

Your rating:

I look at your face and I see it's red

you got a lot on your plate that is in your head

you think that money's ok but it ought to grow on trees

and when I say why don't you plant a coin

you say I'm being sarcastic and that you're goin'

see how a silly remark can cause a lot of tears



And people don't know what we're going through

they think if nothing is right it can't be true

they have an image of us that only they can see

the way things used to be



I look at your heart and I see it's gone

there's nothing beating Inside not even a drum

it doesn't matter I dare-say as long as you can breathe

and when I say is that beef wellington

you say I've told you goddamnit bourgignon

see how a silly mistake can cause a lot of grief



And like It or not it's a sad affair

we never talk anymore go out anywhere

it's like a different world to the one of you and me

the way things used to be



The way things used to be

not so long ago

when we were young and free 

the way things used to be

not so long ago

you were loving me

every night and every day strong in every way

passion glowing like a fire burning with desire

whatever happened



I look at your face and I see it's long

You've got one hell of a cheek saying nothing's wrong

you think I like it when friends are reluctant to appear

and when I say why don't you tell me straight

you say I'm losing my temper and that you hate

see how an over-reaction causes so much fear

and when I get home after being away

you know I've only one thought for the coming day

I wish that in between fighting we could stop and see

the way things used to be
