Lyrics:

Try to remember the first of September
When grass was green and all so mellow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow, follow

Can it be that was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me would we, could we?

Memories light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another of the way we were

Can it be that was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
And if we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we, could we?

Memories may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the last time
How we will remember
Whenever we remember
The way, ooh
I said the way we were
