Back The Way (dottie's Point Of View Lyrics - Singles - Carly Simon

Back the way it was before 

Before the door was opened 

Back the way it was before 

Before the ice was broken 

Back the way it used to be 

Everyone thought I was funny 

But nobody ever asked me 

If I wanted tiny little sandwiches 

Sent up to my room

Back the way it was before 

I was always waiting 

Everyone thought I was okay 

But now I'm scintillating 

Back the way it used to be 

Some people thought I was pretty 

But not many passes were made at me 

Back the way it was before 

But now my prayers are answered 

And my star is on the rise 

Flashbulbs popping, traffic stopping 

Everyone's my best friend 

Back the way it used to be 

Money was always a tyrant 

I spent it all paying my rent 

Back the way it used to be 

Photos 

But now my prayers are answered 

And my star is on the rise 

Flashbulbs popping, traffic stopping 

Everyone's my best friend 

Back the way it used to be 

Sing a song of long ago 

Back the way it used to be
