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,
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 shoul - der
Maybe old feelings will come through
Maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why we ever walked a - way--
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 wast - ed staring at the phone.
Sweet old songs, I'm counting on you to bring her back to me;
I'm tired of listening alone.
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 shoul - der
Maybe old feelings will come through
Maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why we ever walked a - way--
Maybe the old songs will bring back the old times
And make her wanna stay.
