We had broken up for good just an hour before
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancin' 'cross the floor
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
And then the band slowed the tempo and the music gets you down
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
It was the same old song with the melancholy sound
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
They don't write 'em like that anymore
They just don't write 'em like that anymore
We'd been living together for a million years
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
But now it feel so strange (out in the atmospheres?)
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancin' so slow
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
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
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
'cos it's so easy to say that you'll forget your past
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aaah
They don't write 'em like that anymore
No! They just don't write 'em like that anymore
They don't write 'em like that anymore
They just don't write 'em like that anymore
They just don't...
No, they dont!
No, no...
Uh uh!
They just don't write 'em like that anymore
Thet just don't
