The Way That It Was

I’ve been reciting
The things you told me long ago
I repeat them
'Til they sound just like they were my own
The way that it was
Ain’t how it’s supposed to be
Just because
Somebody said it’s right for me
Don’t mean that it is
The way that it was
Ain’t no way to live
I’ve been lookin' over my shoulder
To see if I’m still there
I had a feelin' I should be leavin'
I don’t know where
The way that it was
Ain’t how it’s supposed to be
Just because
Somebody said it’s right for me
Don’t mean that it is
The way that it was
Ain’t no way to live
The way that it was
Ain’t how it’s supposd to be
Just because
Sombody said it’s right for me
Don’t mean that it is
The way that it was
The way that it was
The way that it was
Ain’t no way to live
