Lyrics

WE USED TO BE

WELL I NEVER SAW THIS PLACE AS JUST A MEMORY BEFORE
NOT BEFORE TODAY
SOME PLACES JUST FEEL EMPTY
I THINK THE BIG SKY JUST TURNED GREY

THE ROAD KEEPS CALLING US SOMEPLACE ELSE
THERE MUST BE SOMEPLACE WE GOTTA BE
I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU ARE TONIGHT
I DOUBT YOUR THINKING BOUT ME

REMAIN IN POSITIVE WAY
REMEMBERING HOW WE USED TO BE

THIS TOWN LOST IT'S SOUL 20 YEARS AGO AND WHAT FOR
I JUST CAN'T SAY
I FEEL A FORCE AROUND ME I FEEL THE PRESSURE
AND NOTHING HERE SEEMS TO PAY

THE TIDE IS AN ENDLESS EDDY
I FEEL I'M LOSING MY WILL TO FIGHT
WHAT I GOT NOBODY ENVYS
IT'S REALLY NOTHING BUT A PITIFUL SIGHT

REMAIN IN A POSITIVE WAY
REMEMBERING HOW WE USED TO BE

I'M WALKING DOWNTOWN
I REMEMBER A PLACE THAT
WE USED TO CALL HOME
IN EVERY DOORWAY I CAN SEE YOUR FACE
BUT I JUST KEEP STUMBLING ON

I REMEMBER THE TIME YOU TOLD ME
THERE’S NO DARKNESS WITHOUT THE LIGHT
NOW THERE'S A SHADOW CAST OVER ME
AND NOTHING I DO FEELS RIGHT

REMAIN IN A POSITIVE WAY
REMEMBERING HOW WE USED TO BE

YOU AND ME USED TO BE TIED TOGETHER
FOR EVERYBODY TO SEE
NOW WE JUST BECOME NOBODY AND
THAT'S NO PLACE I WANT TO BE

REMAIN IN A POSITIVE WAY
REMEMBERING HOW WE USED TO BE

IF YOU WALK DOWN TO LINDEN
DOWN BY THE RIVER
THERE'S A PLACE I USED TO PLAY
AS A CHILD I SAW THE FUTURE
IT DON'T EXIST WHAT I THOUGHT I COULD SEE
TO BE TOGETHER BABY IS THE ONLY WAY
TO GET TO WHERE I WANNA BE
WITHOUT YOU I GOT NOTHIN TO SAY
SO I GUESS THAT'S HOW IT'S GONNA BE

REMAIN IN A POSITIVE WAY
REMEMBERING HOW WE USED TO BE
REMEMBERING HOW WE USED TO BE
REMEMBERING HOW WE USED TO BE
