Way It Was - Morgan Powers

I was shaking hands with the face of death In the amazon I was in a trance Tryna' catch my breath But I couldn't run When you came around I was on the ground Blood in my mouth And I realized the whole damn time I've been missing out (Hey!) Oh, we never gonna go back to the way it was Oh, and we're never gonna go back to the way we was Tell me if you wanna roll with the rest of us Cause, oh, it's never gonna go back to the way it was Did you get your fill? Have you seen it all? Have you had enough? It's a jagged pill you've been choking on You gotta cough it up Ain't it fine to forget your mind when you ride the wave Summertime is only one more breath away Just one more breath away Oh, we never gonna go back to the way it was Oh, and we're never gonna go back to the way we was Tell me if you wanna roll with the rest of us Cause, oh, it's never gonna go back to the way it was Na na na na, na na na na na na, na na na na na na The way it was Na na na na, na na na na na na, na na na na na na The way it was I don't need to know what we're heading for Babe, I'm not looking back Listen to your feet on the wooden floor Don't need nothing else but that You know you don't have to take Your past mistakes into the dawn So drop off your bags, don't break your back We're gonna keep moving on We're moving on, we're moving on We're moving on, we're moving on Oh, we never gonna go back to the way it was Oh, and we're never gonna go back to the way we was Tell me if you wanna roll with the rest of us Cause, oh, it's never gonna go back to the way it was The way it was, the way it was The way it was, the way it was

Oh-oh-oh Feels like yesterday I was living at my parents' house I blinked and things changed Fast forward and I was moving out I can only exist in three dimensions at a time Who am I to resist a river flowing left to right? It's like we've been dancing in the dark A great big expansion from a spark Over in a moment, finished in a flash Slipping through my fingers, life's an hourglass Shattered on the floor, oh It'll never be the way it was before No Feels like yesterday I was falling in love Then came the heartbreak Like it always does Nobody escapes it Time's a losing game Might as well embrace it 'Til it flies away I know that nobody can stay forever young (forever young) I wish I could just take a break from growing up (from growing up) It's like we've been dancing in the dark A great big expansion from a spark Over in a moment, finished in a flash Slipping through my fingers, life's an hourglass Shattered on the floor, oh It'll never be the way it was before The way it was before Over in a moment, finished in a flash Slipping through my fingers, moving way too fast Wish I had just a little more, oh It'll never be the way it was before

We came the long way And I thought you knew It was the long way My darling, I thought you knew We came the long way So, don't break my heart, yeah Don't cha We've been through the desert Where no water flows We've walked streets and highways Where kung-fu is afraid to go It was the long way So, don-cha Don't cha I'm not gon' tell you off, baby 'Cause I told you so much, you know So, don't cha (It's because I, I still need your warm and tender touch) (Just excuse me without you, darling) So, don't cha, eh We've been on the mountains And I thought you knew We've been through the valleys Where the green herbs grow (Oh darling) It was the long way

Sixty-Six was still a narrow two-lane highway Harry Truman was the man who ran the show The bad Korean war was just beginning And I was just three years too young to go Country music hadn't gone to New York City yet And a service man was proud of what he'd done And Hank and Lefty crowded every jukebox That's the way it was in '51 There's so much about the good old days I'd love to tell And there's folks around I know, still remember well Slow dancin' close together when a ballad played 'Cause a thing called, 'Rock and Roll' was yet to come It was a big year for a drive-in rest'rant, Carhop And that's the way it was in '51 There's so much about the good old days I'd love to tell And there's folks around I know, still remember well Slow dancin' close together when a ballad played 'Cause a thing called, 'Rock and Roll' was yet to come A big year for a drive-in rest'rant, Carhop And that's the way it was in '51 Hank and Lefty crowded every jukebox Oh Lord, that's the way it was in '51

Mariam pulls my hair Makes me cry at lunch Mom says she wants to be my friend But I think she hates my guts Mariam chases me Kicks me in the teeth What did I ever do to her and How did she get so mean? Miriam ditches school That's the third all week Maybe she's tired of pulling my hair And kicking me in the teeth Mariam comes to class With a big fat bruise Kids say she got in another fight But Mariam never loses Maybe she's not so mean Maybe she's not so mean Mariam rides the bus That's the first all week All of the seats are taken So I let her sit by me
