The Way It Was

Go shine your ghost light
Illuminate this empty room
It always felt right
All the time I spent with you

Everyone moved on
Now I’m a phantom in the night
Cut loose
Rear view
And I know

It can’t be the way it was
It can’t be the way it was
Way it was back then

Marley’s chained you to your desk
To live the same day again
I was foolish thinking youth was not a story with an end

It can’t be the way it was
It can’t be the way it was
Way it was back then
It can’t be the way it was
It can’t be the way it was
Way it was back then

We never do anything
But sulk and feel sorry
And I don’t belong
We never do anything
Last night when you called me
I turned my phone off
