We had broken up for good just an hour before Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 'cross the floor Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
And then the band slowed the tempo when the music took you down Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh It was the same old song with the melancholy sound Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
They don't write 'em like that anymore They don't write 'em like that anymore
We been living together for a million years Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh But now it feels so strange out in the atmospheres Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing so slow Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
They don't write 'em like that anymore They don't write 'em like that anymore...
Now I wind up staring at an empty glass Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh Cause it's so easy to say that you'll forget your past Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
They don't write 'em like that anymore They don't write 'em like that anymore They don't write 'em like that anymore They don't write 'em like that anymore
