The Way Back
Rediscovering Lost Love: Can We Reclaim What Once Was?
Lyrics
Always believed we were gonna be the other ones
Always believed we were going to be a unique couple, not engaging in negative behaviors like cheating, fighting, or excessive drinking.
Not the cheating ones, or the fighting ones, or the lying drunks
Reiterating the desire for a positive relationship, reminiscing about a picture from their first meeting tainted by memories influenced by alcohol.
Still got that picture from the night we met
Recalling intimate moments and closeness, leaning against a truck.
Mem’ries soaked in the whiskey that we can’t forget
Transition from being lovers to almost acquaintances; the relationship has dwindled significantly.
Kissing you, holding you, leaning up against my truck
Highlighting the enjoyment of quiet times together in the past.
We were lovers, now we’re barely friends
Reflecting on the initial excitement and connection, spending quality time indoors.
There was nothing better than (better than) just staying in, back then
Anticipation and excitement for the weekends, reminiscent of a youthful, passionate relationship.
Counting down the minutes till the weekend,
Revisiting the intense love they shared in their younger years, insatiable for each other.
We were kids in love
Despite a strong start, the relationship deteriorated due to deception and uncertainty.
We could never get enough, but it got lost somehow
Asking for another chance, a desire to reconnect and rekindle what was lost.
In the lies and doubt, so if I reach out
Seeking a way to return to the passionate and loving early days of the relationship.
Would you take my hand again?
Expressing the belief that their shared history is too significant to simply give up on the relationship.
Can we find our way back, to the way back when
Admitting to stubbornness preventing acknowledgment of their true feelings for each other.
We got too much history just to call it quits
From being deeply connected lovers to barely maintaining a friendship due to past mistakes.
But we’re both too stubborn for us to admit
Recognizing their strong history together but finding it hard to admit their feelings.
That we’re meant to be (meant to be)
Questioning how they ended up in their current troubled state despite feeling destined for each other.
How’d it come to this
We were lovers, now we’re barely friends
Similar to earlier verses, reminiscing about the cozy times spent together indoors.
There was nothing better than (better than) just staying in, back then
Recollection of the anticipation and excitement for the weekends during their passionate phase.
Counting down the minutes till the weekend,
Continuing to recall the intense love and desire they once shared.
We were kids in love
Describing the insatiable and passionate nature of their love in the past.
We could never get enough, but it got lost somehow
Reiterating the loss of their intense connection due to deception and uncertainty.
In the lies and doubt, so if I reach out
Requesting another chance to reconnect and regain what was lost.
Would you take my hand again?
Hoping for a return to the passionate and loving early days of their relationship.
Can we find our way back, to the way back...
Pleading to revisit the time when they promised their love would last forever.
When we swore that things would never end
Recalling a promise made during a time of deep love and connection.
So I’ll cross my heart, make that promise again
Committing once more to that same promise of eternal love.
Let’s find our way back, to the way back when
Expressing a desire to return to the passionate early days of their relationship.
We were lovers, now we’re barely friends
Similar to earlier verses, reflecting on the transition from being deeply connected lovers to barely maintaining a friendship.
There was nothing better than (better than) just staying in, back then
Reiteration of the enjoyment of cozy times spent indoors during the passionate phase.
Counting down the minutes till the weekend,
Anticipation and excitement for the weekends, reminiscent of their youthful, passionate love.
We were kids in love
Remembering the insatiable nature of their love during their younger years.
We could never get enough, but it got lost somehow
Expressing the loss of their intense connection due to deception and uncertainty.
In the lies and doubt, so if I reach out
Asking for another opportunity to reconnect and rebuild what was lost.
Would you take my hand again?
Hoping for a return to the passionate and loving early days of their relationship.
Can we find our way back, to the way back when
Pleading to revisit the time when their love was strong and genuine.
Way back when
Referencing a desire to return to the period in their relationship when things were good.
