Back Then

(album: I Wouldn't Want You Any Other Way - 1972)

I've loved you for so long that it's hard for me to change
And I know since you're not here there's some things to rearrange
But I keep on dream that someday you just might come back again
Oh, and I want everything to be the way it was back then

Back then our love would start through the kiss and morning coffee
And good morning darling did you sleep all right
Back then my day was made within mem'ry of your loving
And the promise that you'll be loving me tonight

It's so strange what can happen how the good things can go wrong
Like one day you were with me the next day you were gone
But a million golden memories can't bring you back again
Oh, I trade them all to change things to the way they were back then

Back then our love would start through the kiss and morning coffee
And good morning darling did you sleep all right
Back then my day was made within mem'ry of your loving
And the promise that you'll be loving me tonight
