The Way It Used to Be Lyrics by Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross

Watchmen: Volume 3 (Music from the HBO Series)

2019

[Verse 1]
Before the way it used to be
The stars would light the way for us to see
I’m a part of everything you do
And I am always watching over you
[Chorus]
Holding you in my embrace
Everything is in its place
The way it always was
The way it used to be
[Verse 2]
And there will never come a day
Where I would ever let you slip away
As long as stars above us both still shine
I’m forever yours and you are mine
[Chorus]
Holding you in my embrace
Everything is in its place
The way it always was
The way it used to be
