THE WAY
Embracing Memories: New Friends' Melodic Ode to Past Love
Lyrics
I like the way
I appreciate the manner or style
I just want the girl that I knew before
Expressing a desire for a past version of a person
Something bout' ya always left me wanting more
An attraction or allure that always left a desire for more
Your emerald eyes, they light up the sky
Complimenting captivating emerald eyes
Everybody's looking as your walking by
Noticing attention from others when walking by
And it's crazy how we feel so close when we're so far
Reflecting on the paradox of feeling close despite physical distance
We were laying in your bedroom drunk
Recalling an intimate moment in a bedroom under the influence of alcohol
We were singing at the top of our lungs
Memories of joyful singing together
Making love until the sun came up
Recollection of making love until sunrise
Baby I like the way, ya
Expressing a liking for the partner's qualities
I like the way we used to be
Fondness for the way the relationship used to be
I like the way you looked at me
Appreciating the partner's gaze
People change, rearrange baby that's alright
Acknowledging changes in people and relationships
I gotta' say it's so strange without you here tonight
Expressing the strangeness of the absence of the partner
You don't have to lie, just say your goodbyes
Encouraging honesty in goodbyes
Nobody wants to be left wondering why
Highlighting the difficulty of dealing with unanswered questions
And it's crazy how we feel so close when we're so far
Reiterating the emotional closeness despite physical distance
We were laying in your bedroom drunk
Revisiting a past intimate moment in a bedroom
We were singing at the top of our lungs
Recollection of joyful singing in a shared experience
Making love until the sun came up
Memories of making love until the morning
Baby I like the way, ya
Reaffirming the appreciation for the partner's qualities
I like the way we used to be, ya
Fondness for the way the relationship used to be
I like the way you looked at me
Appreciating the partner's gaze
We were laying in your bedroom drunk
Recollection of an intimate moment in a bedroom
We were singing at the top of our lungs
Memories of joyful singing together
Making love until the sun came up
Recollection of making love until sunrise
I like the way, the way, the way we used to be
Expressing a general liking for the way things used to be
