the old songs

candles burning

glasses are chilled

and soon she'll be by

hope and pray she'll say that she's willing

to give us another try

and if all these plans i made don't melt the lady's heart

i'll put on the old forty-fives

and maybe the old songs will bring back the old times

maybe the old lines will sound new

maybe she'll lay her head on my shoulder

and maybe old feelings will come through

maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why we ever walked away

maybe the old songs will bring back the old times

and make her wanna stay

it's been too long without seeing her face light up

when i come home

been to many hours i've waste staring

at the phone

sweet old songs i'm counting on you

bring her back to me

i'm tired of listening alone

maybe the old songs will bring back the old times

maybe the old lines will sound new

maybe she'll lay her head on my shoulder

and maybe old feelings will come through

maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why we ever walked away

maybe the old songs will bring back the old times

and make her wanna stay

and make her wanna stay

and make her wanna stay
