This Old Love Song
I gave you a kiss today,
But all you did was turn and walk away.
Chasing you, I asked, "What was wrong?"
Looking at me you answered, "I'm tired of playing this old love song."
Tears ran down my cheeks,
I was caught in sorrow, pain, and grief.
But then I looked up and wiped my tears away
The sun looked brighter- it was a new day
No longer would I cry over love that went wrong
I no longer needed to play this old love song.
Sure, I was sad and felt a little gray
But the pain was melting- bringing me a new way
I no longer got to hold your hand or give you a kiss,
Those were just a few things I had to miss
I still get to see you almost every day,
But after we broke up, I've decided to go another way.
