The Way It Used to Be Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Before the way it used to be
The stars would light the way for us to see
I’m a part of everything you do
And I am always watching over you

[Chorus]
Holding you in my embrace
Everything is in its place
The way it always was
The way it used to be

[Verse 2]
And there will never come a day
Where I would ever let you slip away
As long as stars above us both still shine
I’m forever yours and you are mine

[Chorus]
Holding you in my embrace
Everything is in its place
The way it always was
The way it used to be

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
