Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A sentimental fool am I
To hear an old love song and wanna cry
But the melody keeps hauntin' me
Reminding me how in love we used to be
I keep hearin' the part that used to touch my heart
Sayin' together forever, breakin' up never
[Verse 2]
Now it's the same old song
But with a different meanin' since you been gone
It's the same, same old song
But with a different meanin' since you been gone
[Verse 3]
You're sweet (You're sweet), as a honey bee
But like a honey bee stings, you've gone and left my heart in pain
All you left (All you left), is our favorite song
The one we danced to all night long
It used to bring sweet memories (Sweet memories)
Of a tender love that used to be
[Verse 4]
Now it's the same old song
But with a different meanin' since you been gone
It's the same, same old song
But with a different meanin' since you been gone
[Verse 5]
Precious memories (Sweet, sweet memories), keep lingerin' on
Every time I hear our favorite song
Now you're gone (Sweet, sweet memories), left this emptiness
I only reminisce the happiness we spent
We used to dance to the music (Used to dance to the music)
Make romance through the music (Make romance to the music)
[Verse 6]
Now it's the same old song
But with a different meanin' since you been gone
It's the same, same old song
But with a different meanin' since you been gone
[Verse 7]
Ah, oh, ah, ha
[Verse 8]
Sentimental fool am I (Sweet, sweet memories)
To hear a old love song and wanna cry
But the melody keeps hauntin' me (Sweet, sweet memories)
Reminding me how in love we used to be
I keep hearin' the part that used to touch my heart
Sayin' together forever, breakin' up never
[Verse 9]
It's the same old song
But with a different meanin' since you been gone
It's the same, same old song
But with a different meanin' since you been gone
[Verse 10]
I don't wanna hear it
(It's the same), Same (Old song), old song
(But with a different meanin' since you been gone) I don't wanna hear it
(It's the same old song) Oh, yeah
(With a different meanin' since you been gone) No, no, no, no, no
(It's the same), same old song
But with a different (Meanin' since you been gone)
You know what? I don't wanna hear it
(It's the same old song)
(With a different meanin' since you been gone)
(It's the same)
