Old Songs

I first heard the old songs playing that night
I saw you dancing as if he held you tight
The stars in the sky could not shine as bright
As the light in your eyes late that night
Well I just pretended that I didn't know
Of the loves in your life and I never showed
How I watched and I prayed when you'd fall asleep
And you'd dream of him and the secrets you'd keep
Now When I hear those old songs I try to forget
But it hurts haunts and taunts me and yet
I think of you and the pain since you left
And the love that I can not for get
Yes when I hear the old songs playing again
I wish you were dancing with me or with him
I think how lucky to have loved you and lost
It was worth all the pain all that it cost
Yes Love can be fickle take you back to school
Play you for simple make you the fool
I just pretended that I didn't care
Of the loves in your life and I'll never dared
Tell how it hurt me or how much I cried
And the pain I felt deep inside
Now when I hear the old songs playing once more
I wish you were dancing with me like before
I think how lucky to have loved you back then
NOW all that I do is pretend
