Lyrics

[00:01.00] Pet Shop Boys - The way it used to be
[00:13.00]
[00:14.59] I'm here, you're there
[00:22.61] Come closer, tonight I'm lonely
[00:29.62] Come here with me
[00:38.16] I want it the way it used to be
[00:44.09]
[00:46.38] What is left of love? Tell me who would even care?
[00:54.25] So much time has passed I'd still meet you anywhere
[01:01.57] Water under bridge, evening after day
[01:09.28] What is left of love? Here that didn't drift away
[01:16.59]
[01:17.41] I can remember days of sun, we knew our lives had just begun
[01:26.14] We could do anything, we're fearless when we're young
[01:33.11] Under the moon, address unknown, I can remember nights in Rome
[01:41.21] I thought that love would last a promise set in stone
[01:47.28]
[01:48.12] I'd survive with only memories
[01:56.54] If I could change the way I feel
[02:03.63] But I want more than only memories
[02:11.60] A human touch to make them real
[02:17.30]
[02:19.59] Another day, another dream, over the bridge an empty scene
[02:27.51] We'd spend the weekend lost in bed and float upstream
[02:35.51] I don't know why we moved away, lost in the here and now we strayed
[02:43.10] Into a New York zone, our promise was betrayed
[02:48.89]
[02:49.91] I was there caught on Tenth Avenue
[02:54.55] You elsewhere with Culver City blues
[02:58.41] Then and there I knew that I'd lost you
[03:03.79]
[03:36.50] What is left of love? Tell me who will even care?
[03:44.00] So much time has passed I'd still meet you anywhere
[03:51.71] Water under bridge, evening after day
[03:59.59] What is left of love? Here that didn't drift away
[04:06.16]
[04:07.63] Don't give me all your love and pain
[04:11.54] Don't sell me New York in the rain
[04:15.00] Let's leave our promises behind
[04:18.28] Rewind and try again
[04:22.44]
[04:23.54] What remains in time that didn't fade away?
[04:30.71] Sometimes I need to see the way it used to be
[04:38.45]
