The You and Me That Used to Be

Our love was something more than just a like love
We never thought of it as fly by night love
We lost a lovely inspiration
For something called sophistication
Have we forgotten that a distant starlight
Is far more lovely than a cocktail bar light
These are unromantic cold days
Don't you remember the old days

We walked together in April rains
The city streets or country lanes
Have you forgotten the you and me that used to be
We'd see a movie or do the zoo
Or window shop the avenue
Don't you remember the you and me that used to be

We loved to often prime this ragtime tune
Always had time to see the moon
We read the funnies every sunday noon, always together
Have you forgotten the fun we used the crazy things we used to do
What has become of the you and me that used to be

We loved to often prime this ragtime tune
Always had time to see the moon
We read the funnies every sunday noon, always together
Have you forgotten the fun we used those crazy things we used to do
What has become of the you and me that used to be
