[00:14.36]Verse 1:
[00:21.23]I got a song in my heart
[00:25.09]Let me start with I'm over you
[00:27.88]Still it can't hurt me to say very plain . . . I think about you
[00:36.90]And the laughs and the jokes and the times that I shared with you.
[00:47.81]I got this feeling for reminiscing
[00:51.19]Wanted to take that trip down memory lane
[00:55.91]But what is missing, is that you're not here to sit down with me
[01:03.34]So I'm thinking these beautiful things all by myself.
[01:09.96]And what's on my mind is...
[01:12.24]
[01:12.82]Chorus:
[01:13.27]Back when it was
[01:14.37]Simple as breathing
[01:16.47]Just the two of us
[01:18.12]We were happy together it was
[01:21.11]Easy to be in
[01:23.16]Our relationship,
[01:24.62]You remember when
[01:26.91]You used to say you loved me so
[01:30.98]Promised one time to never go away
[01:36.13]And now you're gone
[01:38.04]
[01:38.95]Verse 2:
[01:40.46]The smile that you left me with, is the same smile I've kept on wearing
[01:47.44]The smile's not so much tied to you
[01:50.46]More tied to what we spent sharing
[01:54.80]Simple little things
[01:57.13]But it was all those simple little things that pleased me the most...
[02:03.00]Need I remind you 'bout the good times baby
[02:07.05]There were good times from the start
[02:09.65]Good times in my heart
[02:10.84]A heart that never lied
[02:13.39]Remember back in '99.
[02:16.56]When we snuck into the neighbor's pool and went for a dip
[02:19.80]There were good times in the rain
[02:22.39]Good times everyday
[02:23.45]Good times Heaven knows
[02:25.86]Remember that dirty little joke
[02:28.97]Made us laugh all night long.
[02:31.73]
[02:32.13]Chorus:
[02:32.52]Back when it was
[02:33.90]Simple as breathing
[02:35.78]Just the two of us
[02:37.18]We were happy together it was
[02:40.30]Easy to be in
[02:42.48]Our relationship,
[02:44.14]You remember when
[02:45.54]You used to say you loved me so
[02:50.21]Promised one time to never go away
[02:56.71]And now you're gone
[02:58.95]
[02:59.80]Bridge
[03:01.71]The joy you left me with, nothing stronger since
[03:08.30]What we did together
[03:11.66]I ain't felt nothing better since that time
[03:16.88]Those were the days
[03:18.88]The nights
[03:19.91]The minutes
[03:21.27]The seconds
[03:22.00]That you were mine
[03:24.15]
[03:24.60]Chorus
[03:26.68]Back when it was
[03:28.33]Simple as breathing
[03:30.56]Just the two of us
[03:32.27]We were happy together it was
[03:35.29]Easy to be in
[03:37.15]Our relationship,
[03:38.94]You remember when
[03:40.60]You used to say you loved me so
[03:44.93]Promised one time to never go away
[03:50.34]And now you're gone
