"The Way It Was Before" lyrics - CHUCK BERRY

The way it was before
I lost your love for me
I never thought I crave to see you
The way it was before

And so it was
I fooled around and lost your love
And since I'm only dreaming of
The way it was before

(Said someday I'd learn, ohh)
And you told me that the tide would turn
And now I see
(I promise, I'll be true, ooh)
And I'll give my love to only you, so help me

Each night I pray
That you'll try and understand
How much I need your love again
The way it was before

(Said someday I'd learn, ohh)
And you told me that the tide would turn
Now I see
(I promise, I'll be true, ohh)
And I'll give my love to only you, so help me

Each night I pray
That you'll try and understand
How much I need your love again
The way it was before
The way it was before
