Intro
Verse 1
We had broken up for good just an hour before
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
Now I m staring at the bodies as they re dancing cross the floor
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
And the band slowed the tempo and the music took you down
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
It was the same old song with the melancholy sound
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
Chorus
They don t write like that any more...
They just don t write like that anymore
Verse 2
We been living together for a million years
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
But now it feels so strange in the atmosphere
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
And the jukebox plays a song that I used to know
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
And now I m staring at the bodies as they re dancing so slow
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
Chorus 2
They don t write like that any more...
They just don t write like that anymore
Verse 3
Now I wind up staring at an empty glass
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
Cause it s so easy to say that you ll forget the past
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
Chorus 3
They don t write like that any more...
They just don t write like that anymore
