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 refrain
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
It's 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
