Into a dream I took a turn And promised to return The way we were The way we met The way I lit your cigarette The way it trailed Into a stream And lay down between
You had to choose A side to lose And divide yourself in two The way you were Long before You were a walking civil war But you forget Where the road goes And tonight it shows
Into your soul I tried to climb But found the hole too high For me to leave The way I’d learn And found I couldn’t turn The way the trees And falling rain Remind me in a way
The way you were The day we met The way I lit your cigarette The way you changed Into a strange Cole Porter phrase But you forget How the song goes And tonight It shows
