We had broken up for good |
|
Just an hour before |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
And now I'm staring at the bodies |
|
As they're dancing 'cross the floor |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
And then the band slowed the tempo |
|
And the music gets you down |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
It was the same old song |
|
With a melancholy sound |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
They don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
They just don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
We'd been living together for a million years |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
But now it feels so strange out of the atmospheres |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
And now I'm staring at the bodies |
|
As they're dancing so slow |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
They don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
They don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
[Instrumental Interlude] |
|
Mmmm, now I wind up staring at an empty glass |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
'Cos it's so easy to say |
|
That she'll forget your past |
|
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah |
|
They don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
No, they just don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
They don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
They just don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
They just don't, no, they don't, no no, uh-uh |
|
They just don't write 'em like that anymore |
|
They just don't |
