Breakup Song Lyrics

We had broken up for good
Just an hour before
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah
And now I'm staring at the bodies
As they're dancing 'cross the floor
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah
And then the band slowed the tempo
And the music gets you down
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah
It was the same old song
With a melancholy sound
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aahThey 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, aah
But now it feels so strange out of the atmospheres
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah
And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah
And now I'm staring at the bodies
As they're dancing so slow
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aahThey don't write 'em like that anymore
They don't write 'em like that anymoreMm, now I wind up staring at an empty glass
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah
'cause it's so easy to say
That she'll forget your past
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, aah
