=======================================================
8-bar intro
Verse 1:
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;
Chorus:
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.
Verse 2:
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.
Repeat chorus
