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 there's dancin' 'cross the floor

Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh

And then the band slowed the tempo and the music gets me 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 just don't write 'em like that anymore

We'd been living together for a million years

Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh

But now it feel 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

Now I'm staring at the bodies as they dancin' so slow

Uh uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh

They don't write 'em like that anymore

They just 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 its 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, 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
