All Behind Us Now Lyrics by Patti Austin

Patti Austin

1984

[Verse 1]
Hey, I'm so sorry
That didn't work the way
That we'd always planned
And hey, I'm so sorry
That you went away and somehow
Didn't understand
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We pretended
For so many years
But now it's time to wash away my tears
[Chorus]
'Cause it's all behind us now
'Cause we learned to live somehow
Without each other
And it's easy to see
It ain't never gonna be the same again
And it's all behind us now
'Cause we found a way to live
Without each other
And in time we'll have to see
If it's ever gonna be that way again
[Verse 2]
Hey, I'm so sorry
That I couldn't find the words that
Might've made you stay
And hey, it's so funny
How we both had said the same thing
In a different way
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We pretended
For so many years
But now it's over, baby
And so are my tears
[Chorus]
'Cause it's all behind us now
'Cause we learned to live somehow
Without each other
And it's easy to see
It ain't never gonna be the same again
And it's all behind us now
'Cause we found a way to live
Without each other
And in time we'll have to see
If it's ever gonna be that way again
[Bridge]
I was holdin' out for far too long
But now I've finally found where I belong
[Chorus]
And it's all behind us now (It's all behind us)
'Cause we learned to live somehow
Without each other
(We learned to live somehow without each other)
And it's easy to see (It's easy)
It ain't never gonna be the same again (Easy to see)
(And we can't be the same again, no, no, no)
And it's all behind us now
'Cause we found a way to live
Without each other
And in time we'll have to see...
