    *LYRCIS*
    💙 *THE WAY IT WAS* 💙
    I drove through the desert last night
    I carried the weight of our last fight
    Elvis singing don't be cruel, and I wonder if you feel it too
    It's like we're going under
    Somewhere outside the lonely Esmeralda county line
    The question of my heart came to my mind
    If I go on with you by my side
    Can it be the way it was?
    When we met did you forget about those golden nights?
    Maybe a thief stole your heart
    Maybe we just drifted apart
    I remember driving in my daddy's car to the airfield
    Blanket on the hood, backs against the windshield
    Back then this thing was running on momentum, love and trust
    That paradise is buried in the dust
    If I go on with you by my side
    Can it be the way it was?
    When we met did you forget about those golden eyes?
    All of our plans have fallen through
    Sometimes a dream don't come true
    Darling! Darling!
    If we go on
    Can it be the way it was
    When we met did you forget all about them golden nights?
    If I go on with you by my side
    Can it be the way it was
    My heart is true, girl it's just you I'm thinking of
    Can it be the way it was?
    Maybe a thief stole your heart

    This song could easily have fitted like a plug inside of a plug-hole back in the 80's.
    I swear Brandon Flowers owns a TIME MACHINE and his obvious love and adoration for 80's music takes him for a cosmic ride back there where he finds some magic dust disguised as something back in those days and teleports himself back into modern time...and goes to work on songs...there's no other way. The songs are all so good.
    This is my favourite of all of THE KILLERS' songs....10/10.

    I moved to Las Vegas just after high school. Some of the first friends I met were in a little town about an hour west of Vegas called Pahrump. I remember the first time I drove out to visit them. The view of the desert was so beautiful. Every shadow cast by every rock and every piece of sagebrush. It was like nothing I had ever seen before. It was like a little bit of magic. All of Southern Nevada is like a little bit of magic, from where the willows still weep on Charleston Avenue, to somewhere outside the lonely Esmeralda County Line. I'm convinced that this album cover is inspired by the drive back from Pahrump. A drive I've made countless times.
    Also this is The Killers' best album and it's not even close. If all the haters on Reddit had ever lived in Nevada and had any of their formative memories attached to it, they would see how obvious this is.

    a) The Killers should play on a Super Bowl Halftime Show
    b) They should play this song...
    c) With Brandon Flowers singing it as a duet with Cheap Trick's Robin Zander.

    LYRICS
    I drove through the desert last night
    I carried the weight of our last fight
    Elvis singing 'Don't be Cruel' and I wonder if you feel it too
    It's like we're going under
    Somewhere outside the lonely Esmeralda County line
    The question of my heart came to my mind
    If I go on with you by my side
    Can it be the way it was when we met?
    Did you forget all about those golden nights?
    Maybe a thief stole your heart
    Or maybe we just drifted apart
    I remember driving in my daddy's car to the airfield
    Blanket on the hood, backs against the windshield
    Back then this thing was running on momentum, love and trust
    That paradise is buried in the dust
    If I go on with you by my side
    Can it be the way it was when we met?
    Did you forget all about those golden nights?
    (The way it was, it was)
    All of our plans are falling through
    Sometimes a dream, it don't come true
    Darling, darling
    (If we go on, can it be?)
    Can it be the way it was when we met?
    Did you forget all about them golden nights?
    If I go on with you by my side
    Can it be the way it was?
    My heart is true
    Girl, it's just you I'm thinking of
    Can it be the way it was
    Maybe a thief stole your heart

    I used to listen to this song all the time years ago. I was at the time considering moving on from my relationship and this song would hit hard every time. Back then I would asked myself all the time: "if I go on on with you by my side you can it be the way it was...".
    In the end it didn't and it was over. It's just sad how we sometimes change in ways we don't want to, we stop feeling things we hold dear to ourselves. Some feelings you just can't control sometimes. This song still hits hard today and I guess it ever will.

    I can almost never pick favorite songs from any given artist - hands down my favorite. Holds a special place, because it came on as I was driving through the Mojave Desert trying to figure out what the heck to do about a relationship. I took it to be a sign to walk away, and I did - but blasted this song on repeat the entire rest of the drive. Night + desert + this song = out of body experience.
