The Breakup Song (They Don't Write'em Like That...)

We'd broken up for good just an hour before
Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 'cross the floor
And then the band slowed the tempo and the music took you down
It was the same old song with the melancholy sound

They don't write 'em like that anymore
They don't write 'em like that anymore

We'd been living together for a million years
And now it feels so strange out in the atmospheres
And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know
And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing so slow

So you wind up staring at an empty glass
'Cause it's so easy to say that you'll forget your past

They don't write 'em like that anymore
They don't write 'em like that anymore
They don't write 'em like that anymore
No they don't
No they don't
No they don't
They don't write 'em like that anymore
