Below, I translated the lyrics of the song The Way We Were by Royal Philharmonic Orchestra from German to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Memories light the corners of my mind
Memories light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories of the way we were
Misty water-colored memories of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were
Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
Or has time rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we?
Tell me, would we?
Memories may be beautiful and yet
Memories may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter we will remember
So it's the laughter we will remember
Whenever we remember
Whenever we remember
The way we were
The way we were
The way we were
The way we were
