Bee Gees - The Way It Was Lyrics






I don't know how, but nights get lonely now
They keep appearing in my eyes
Such a warm and tender glow
For just one moment I remember all
The love we had was never all that bad
There were smiles and there were tears
On that special starry night, with your arms around me
Held on tight

Wasn't that the way it was?
Two strangers reaching for a worthless cause
Wasn't that the love we shared?
Or just the restless years when no-one cared

I don't know why, it's hard to say goodbye
Or even justify the end
You meant so very much to me
Then to let you go, start my life again
The love we had was never all that bad
There were smiles and there were tears
Till that special summer day
When I reached out for you, you just walked away

Wasn't that the way it was?
Two strangers reaching for a worthless cause
Wasn't that the love we shared?
Or just the restless years when no-one cared

When you move it like you really know how to move me
I follow you wherever you go
I just wan

    Such a beautiful song. I can't find the piano music for it .... if anyone has it, would love to see it posted. Chords are hard to figure out ... so pretty.

    Definitely this deserves all vocal awards.

    BEST SONGWRITTERS EVER

  14. S.... G....

    Important to take good care of Bee Gees`musical treasures, cause there will never be music like this ever again. Today I dedicated this song as a birthday present to myself. I have many Bee Gees favorite songs, but this song was my first choice. Even it's a sad song, it's so beautiful that it can't be described. Two other similar Bee Gees songs I love is "Until", "Be who you are" and "Nothing could be good".

  15. S.... G....

    The song is epic, only the way ingenious Bee Gees could do it. It is the way it was, and it was very very good! :-)

  16. k.... w....

    love this song and the bee gees

  17. D.... E....

    This underrated but highly moving song with one of the best vocals that Barry had ever rendered, is our special very personal song of my wife... who happens to be the central figure in giving meaning to my life.
    Thank you MAMA BELLE!

    +barbara covell Listening to this now, always has been a favorite. This just charges the soul.

  22. A.... L....

    Such a wonderful song. R.I.P. Robin and Maurice. And you too, Andy. All brilliant songmakers, writers, musicians and singers. Much better, in my opinion, than most of the things that seem to be played on the radio these days. This can be called music!

    A.... L....

    Todays music is 99% BULLSHIT! Especially the stuff played on the (german) radio. Every day the same boring songs, even on oldie-stations (which are much better than that other stations, imo). Groundhog Day...

  23. H.... V....

    Dat een droevig nummer zó mooi kan zijn, kan er na >100x nog tranen van trekken.
    Bee Gees jullie waren niet minder dan geweldig!!

  24. c.... m....

    Such a beautiful song, one of my favourites ...

  25. J.... A....

    Los Bee Gees serán siempre mi banda personal. Sonaron cuando era un adolescente y aún hoy me jalan. Este disco era el revés de un disco 45. Desde que la escuche se hizo mía. Hasta hoy y por siempre.

    J.... A....

    Amigo Jorge, yo también era un adolescente cuando escuche por primera vez este disco ... Y efectivamente era el lado B de otro ... Y al igual que tu me sigue acompañando por la vida a través de ya tantos años ....¡ BEE GEES FOREVER !

    J.... A....

    el lado A era la cancion Love so rigth...

    This was my favorite cut on the 8-track.  Sadly, they interrupted this song right down the middle while switching tracks.  Thanks for posting.

  27. M.... '....

    Después de años de búsqueda y desistir (El cierre de Megaupload frustro mis planes), decidí retomar mi búsqueda hace 2 días y la encontré.
    La mas hermosa de las melodías que no podía olvidar después de hace 6 años.
    Gracias!! :')

    I remember the excitement buying this album way back when. It's so packed with favorites...this song in particular. Thanks YouTube for bringing it back to me!

  29. w.... ....

    Another one of those classics that way too few people know about.
