Engelbert Humperdinck - The Way It Used To Be Тексты

THE WAY IT USED TO BE


LONELY TABLE JUST FOR ONE, IN A BRIGHT AND CROWDED ROOM
WHILE THE MUSIC HAS BEGUN, I DRINK TO MEMORIES IN THE GLOOM
THOUGH THE MUSIC'S STILL THE SAME, IT HAS A BITTERSWEET REFRAIN

SO PLAY THE SONG THE WAY IT USED TO BE
BEFORE SHE LEFT AND CHANGED IT ALL TO SADNESS
AND MAYBE IF SHE'S PASSING BY THE WINDOW
SHE WILL HEAR A LOVE SONG, AND A MELODY
AND EVEN IF THE WORDS ARE NOT SO TENDER SHE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER,
THE WAY IT USED TO BE ..

FRIENDS STOP BY AND SAY HELLO, AND I LAUGH AND HIDE THE PAIN
IT'S QUITE EASY 'TIL THEY GO, THEN THE SONG BEGINS AGAIN

SO PLAY THE SONG THE WAY IT USED TO BE
BEFORE SHE LEFT AND CHANGED IT ALL TO SADNESS
AND MAYBE IF SHE'S PASSING BY THE WINDOW SHE WOULD HEAR OUR LOVE SONG, AND OUR MELODY
AND EVEN IF THE WORDS ARE NOT SO TENDER
SHE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE WAY IT USED TO BE ..
