The Way It Used To Be (一如往昔) - City and Colour (城市与色彩乐团)[00:00:00]
This is the story of a man[00:00:23]
Who took for granted everything he had[00:00:28]
How he let it all just slip away[00:00:33]
Never to return again[00:00:38]
Now 20 years have come and gone[00:00:43]
And still he wonders what he did so wrong[00:00:48]
And how that he can win back her heart[00:00:53]
And finally step outside of the dark[00:00:58]
He buys fresh roses every day[00:01:03]
Her favorite flowers so she used to say[00:01:08]
And now the memories are all that he has left[00:01:13]
And friends to drink himself to death[00:01:18]
This is the story of a man(This is the story of a man)[00:01:22]
Who took for granted everything he had(everything he had)[00:01:28]
How he let it all just slip away(he let it slip away)[00:01:33]
Never to return again(to return again)[00:01:38]
It´s clear she´s moved on long ago[00:02:02]
And he still clings on to a distant hope[00:02:07]
That she´ll come back and make her happy home[00:02:12]
For now it´s him and the bottle all alone[00:02:18]
Sometimes you´ll see him in the yard[00:02:22]
A wounded man with a desperate heart[00:02:27]
He keeps the hedges trimmed nice and neat[00:02:32]
But keeps them lower than they used to be[00:02:37]
This is the story of a man (This is the story of a man)[00:02:42]
Who took for granted everything he had (everything he had)[00:02:47]
How he let it all just slip away (he let it slip away)[00:02:52]
Never to return again (to return again)[00:02:57]
The single dress hangs on it's own[00:03:22]
The scent of perfume of he has to hold[00:03:27]
A wasted life waiting on a dream[00:03:32]
Hoping for things the way they used to be[00:03:37]
This is the story of a man (This is the story of a man)[00:03:42]
Who took for granted everything he had (everything he had)[00:03:47]
How he let it all just slip away (he let it slip away)[00:03:52]
Never to return again (to return again)[00:03:57]
