[00:00.50]The Way It Used To Be
[00:07.56]-Engelbert Humperdinck
[00:12.56]
[00:14.58]Lonely table just for one
[00:22.20]In a bright and crowded room
[00:29.20]While the music has begun
[00:36.30]I drink to memories in the gloom
[00:43.79]Though the music's still the same
[00:50.58]It has a bittersweet refrain
[00:55.32]
[00:56.70]So play the song the way it used to be
[01:04.13]Before she left and changed it all to sadness
[01:11.33]And maybe if she's passing by the window
[01:16.68]She will hear a love song
[01:20.25]And a melody
[01:26.01]And even if the words are not so tender
[01:31.29]She will always remember
[01:35.38]The way it used to be
[01:39.59]
[01:42.28]Friends stop by and say hello
[01:49.69]And I laugh and hide the pain
[01:56.73]It's quite easy 'til they go
[02:04.06]Then the song begins again
[02:08.44]
[02:09.84]So play the song the way it used to be
[02:17.29]Before she left and changed it all to sadness
[02:24.68]And maybe if she's passing by the window
[02:29.96]She will hear a love song
[02:33.75]And a melody
[02:39.40]And even if the words are not so tender
[02:44.72]She will always remember
[02:49.20]The way it used to be
