THE OLD SONGS  (Barry Manilow)

     Candles burning, glasses are chilled and soon
     She'll be by
     Hope and pray
     She’ll say that she's willing to give us
     Another try
     And if all those plans I made
     Don't melt the lady's heart
     I'll put on the old 45's

     (Chorus)
     And maybe the old songs
     Will bring back the old times
     Maybe the old lines
     Will sound new
     Maybe she'll lay her
     Head on my shoulder
     Maybe old feelings
     Will come through
     Maybe we'll start to cry
     And wonder why
     We ever walked away
     Maybe the old songs
     Will bring back the old times
     And make her wanna stay
     
     It's been too long since I've
     Seen her face light up
     When I come home
     It's been too many
     Hours I've wasted staring
     At the phone
     
     Sweet old songs I'm counting on you
     To bring her back to me
     I'm tired of listening alone
     
     (Repeat Chorus)
