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 walkin' civil war   But you forget where the road goes and tonite it shows      Into your soul I tried to climb but found the hole too high   For me to leave the way I'd learned and found I couldn't turn   The way the trees and fallin' rain remind me in a way      The way you were, the day we met, the way I lit your cigarette   The way it changed into a strange Cole Porter phrase   But you forget how the song goes and tonite it shows
