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
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 our love song
And the melody
And even if the words are
Not so tender
She will always remember
The way it used to be
Friends stop by and say hello
And I laugh and hide the pain
Its quite easy to let go
Then the song begins again
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 our love song
And the melody
And even if the words are
Not so tender
She will always remember
The way it used to be
