The Way We Were

Ngader asked for suggestions for a song so she can sing it for her company’s Karaoke contest. Last year she sang Beverly Craven’s
Promise Me, so I think her vocal range should be rather splendid.

I’m suggesting The Way We Were by Barbara Streisand.

Download ‘The Way We Were’

Memories light the corners of my mind.
Misty water color 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?

Mem?ries may be beautiful, and yet,
Whats too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget.

So it?s the laughter we will remember,
When ever we remember the way we were,
The way we were.

This song kinda grows on you, i must say, but not sure if I’m gonna be using it. Thanks!
