Way Back When
Journey Through Time: A Tale of Love, Struggle, and Triumph
Lyrics
We used to be insane
We used to have a wild and unpredictable lifestyle.
We used to be a mess
Our lives were chaotic and disordered.
We used to have our hands tied behind our backs
We faced constraints and challenges, symbolized by having our hands tied behind our backs.
We worked so hard for such a little cheque
We worked hard for minimal financial rewards.
We never had a thing
We lived in poverty; material possessions were scarce.
Nobody gave a damn
No one cared about us.
And even though we had our ups and downs
Despite the ups and downs, we were confident we would succeed in the end.
We always knew we'd get there in the end
We believed in eventual success despite challenges.
But we, worked it through
We persevered through difficulties.
With two kids and a radio
Our family consisted of two kids and a radio.
Me and you, was all I'd ever need
You and I were sufficient for a fulfilling life.
Way back when the years just sifting on
Reflecting on the past when time seemed to pass slowly.
The days go by and everyone was wrong
As time passed, people's perceptions were proven wrong.
Cause here we are and we're still going, strong
We are still resilient and thriving despite challenges.
And we still talk about those days
We reminisce and fondly remember those times.
Way back when
Referring to the distant past.
We got ourselves some jobs
We secured employment and purchased a home.
And bought ourselves a home
Our lives improved with stability and ownership.
Suddenly the world seemed a better place
The world seemed better after achieving certain milestones.
The years flew by and now the kids are grown
Our children have grown up over the years.
When you lost your faith
You experienced a crisis of faith.
And when you lost yourself
You faced personal challenges and lost a sense of identity.
Felt as if my world stopped turning around
My world felt shattered when you were going through a difficult time.
Buried all the pain inside myself
I internalized the pain to protect you.
But I helped you through, the worst we ever knew
I supported you through the toughest times we faced.
And we, fixed this life
We repaired and improved our lives.
So that's it's still me and you
Our commitment to each other remains strong.
Way back when the years just sifting on
Reflecting on the slow passage of time in the past.
The days go by and everyone was wrong
Despite naysayers, we proved them wrong over the years.
Cause here we are and we're still going, strong
We are still resilient and thriving despite challenges.
And we still talk about those days
We continue to cherish and discuss those earlier times.
Way back when
Referring to the distant past.
So here we are
In the present, it's just the two of us with our old radio.
It's just us and our old radio
We faced significant challenges, but you are my everything.
And it's been so hard
Despite difficulties, our bond remains unbroken.
But you're all I'll ever need
You are the only person I need in my life.
That I'll need
Reiterating the importance of the partner.
Way back when the years just sifting on
Reflecting on the slow passage of time in the past.
The days go by and everyone was wrong
Despite naysayers, we proved them wrong over the years.
Cause here we are and we're still going, strong
We are still resilient and thriving despite challenges.
And we still talk about those days
We continue to cherish and discuss those earlier times.
I said, we still talk about those days
Emphasizing the ongoing importance of reminiscing.
Way back when
Referring to the distant past.
