Lyrics Anne Murray

Anne Murray

Good Old Song

All the world is a room

And the room is painted blue

You look at me, I look at you

And we need our song to pull us through

But the melody is changin'

And the words have slipped away

And we cannot sing our good old song

Like we could in the good old days

Leavin' you, it sure ain't easy

I think of the summer nights we knew

I remember the way you used to please me

But the time is now upon us to go our separate ways

Because we cannot sing the good old song

Like we could in the good old days

And don't you want to have your chance?

Don't you want to try a new romance?

And I know you will

(I know you will)

When the time is right

You will dance on the highest hill

In the night

But tonight I want to hold you close

I wanna feel you near me one more time

But too bad, so sad, that's how it goes

When your friends all come and ask you

Why your lover went away?

Just tell 'em we could not sing the good old song

Like we could in the good old days

Just tell 'em we could not sing the good old song

Like we could in the good old days
