Good Old Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All the world is a room and the room is painted blue
You look at me, I look at you
And we need our song to pull us through
But the melody is changin'
And the words have slipped away
And we cannot sing our good old song
Like we could in the good old days.
Leavin' you, it sure ain't easy
I think of the summer nights we knew
I remember the way you used to please me
But the time is now upon us to go our separate ways
Because we cannot sing the good old song
Like we could in the good old days.
And don't you want to have your chance
Don't you want to try a new romance
And I know-ow-ow you will (I know you will)
When the time is right
You will dance on the highest hill
In the night.
But tonight I want to hold you close
I wanna feel you near me one more time
But too bad, so sad, that's how it goes
When your friends all come and ask you
Why your lover went away
Just tell 'em we could not sing the good old song
Like we could in the good old days.
Just tell 'em we could not sing the good old song
Like we could in the good old days...
