From the recording Back To New
Lyrics
When We went Away | Anat Porat
When we went away just you and I
For a few days alone
I left behind all the noise and worries
And I just was myself
And so were you
And it was liberating, it was new
When we went away
And I knew that everything would be ok
And so it was
And we could be reminded of all that lies within
Beneath the daily stresses and ordeals
Magical days away with you
Then, we came back home
And out of all the corners our habits crawled back in
And all the magic disappeared into thin air
Just like a d r e a m
It disappeared like a dream
Diving right back into the puddle that is our life
When we went away,
After all these years you looked at me that way
It made me feel like we were 17
You swiped me off my feet
And it was liberating and so sweet
When we went away
It felt so natural but I knew we couldn't stay like this forever
Every dream comes to an end
That's how life is with all the daily stresses and ordeals
What can we do? that's how life is
(When we went away)
After all these years you looked at me that way
(When we went away)
And I knew that everything would be ok
(When we went away)
It felt so natural but I knew we couldn't stay
(When we went away)
We're diving right back into the puddle that is our lives
