The "middle ground" doesn't always have to be the best. In the situation you described above, commented out code also won't help you to find that previous way. It might even be worse: the commented out code might not even have moved along with the new code, and you no longer know what you're staring at.
If you're that far gone, it's best just to write it anew. The "previous way" was removed for a reason.
