Dream Theater - The Way It Used To Be lyrics

[Studio demo from 1997, recorded during the making of the album ]

[Falling Into Infinity. Available on the CD single for the song ]

["Hollow Years". ]

- James LaBrie

Feelin' sick once again

I'd give anything

To be back home

Safe and warm inside

I can't stand the crowds

Or the smell that surrounds me

The cloth and key

Still preach chastity

Take me back so I can see

The way it used to be

I lay down and enter a dream

Unlike anywhere I've been

All is silent and sweet

Then I'm falling down to the ground

And I'm lost from what I've found

Can't stand the sounds no more

Take me back so I can see

The way it used to be

The way it used to be

Move me from the water

Too cold to swim

Bring me to the land

Move me from the water

That I see within

Bring me to the land

Radio waves

Splash through my head

To a rhythm that I crave

Radio waves

Relive the moment

Seems like yesterday

Take me back to Twelve Mile Bay

Where I'll sit at the edge with my feet in the water

Take me back as the sun fades away

Break down the walls so I can breathe

Move me from the water

Too cold to swim

Bring me to the land

Move me from the water

That I see within

Bring me to the land

Move me from the water

Too cold to swim

Bring me to the land

Move me from the water

That I see within

The way it used to be

The way it used to be

Move me from the water

Too cold to swim

Bring me to the land

Move me from the water

That I see within

Bring me to the land

Move me from the water

Too cold to swim

Bring me to the land

Move me from the water

That I see within
