The Way Back Lyrics by Eric Burgett

2021

Always believed we were gonna be the other ones
Not the cheating ones, or the fighting ones, or the lying drunks
Still got that picture from the night we met
Mem’ries soaked in the whiskey that we can’t forget
Kissing you, holding you, leaning up against my truck
We were lovers, now we’re barely friends
There was nothing better than (better than) just staying in, back then
Counting down the minutes till the weekend
We were kids in love
We could never get enough, but it got lost somehow
In the lies and doubt, so if I reach out
Would you take my hand again?
Can we find our way back, to the way back when
We got too much history just to call it quits
But we’re both too stubborn for us to admit
That we’re meant to be (meant to be)
How’d it come to this
We were lovers, now we’re barely friends
There was nothing better than (better than) just staying in, back then
Counting down the minutes till the weekend
We were kids in love
We could never get enough, but it got lost somehow
In the lies and doubt, so if I reach out
Would you take my hand again?
Can we find our way back, to the way back...
When we swore that things would never end
So I’ll cross my heart, make that promise again
Let’s find our way back, to the way back when
We were lovers, now we’re barely friends
There was nothing better than (better than) just staying in, back then
Counting down the minutes till the weekend
We were kids in love
We could never get enough, but it got lost somehow
In the lies and doubt, so if I reach out
Would you take my hand again?
Can we find our way back, to the way back when
Way back when
