Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every night, I sit here by my window
Window
Starin' at the lonely avenue
Avenue
Watchin' lovers holdin' hands and laughin'
Ha-ha-ha
I'm thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
[Chorus]
Thinkin' 'bout things
Like a walk in the park
Things
Like a kiss in the dark
Things
Like a sailboat ride
Yeah, yeah
What about the night we cried?
Things like a lover's vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
[Verse 2]
Memories are all I have to cling to
Cling to
And heartaches are the friends I'm talkin' to
But you got me now
When I'm not thinkin' 'bout just how much I love you
I love you too
I'm thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
We used to do
[Chorus]
Thinkin' 'bout things
Like a walk in the park
Things
Like a kiss in the dark
Things
Like a sailboat ride
Yeah, yeah
What about the night we cried?
Things like a lover's vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
[Verse 3]
Still can hear the jukebox softly playin'
Playin'
And the face each day I see belongs to you
Belongs to you
There's not a single sound and there's nobody else around
It's just me thinkin' 'but the things we used to do
[Chorus]
Thinkin' 'bout things
Like a walk in the park
Lots of things
Like a kiss in the dark
Yeah, things
Like a sailboat ride
Whoa, whoa
What about the night we cried?
Things like a lover's vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
[Refrain]
And heartaches are friends I'm talkin' to
You got me thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
I hope so
Thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
[Outro]
You were rubbish in that
Don't start that with me on this album
Why, why did you do it like that, that time?
Well, from start to finish there, you're saying that I'm wrong
You said, you said, I had to think about Kylie when I was doing this, and I was
You obviously weren't thinkin' 'bout Kylie
Really, you were thinkin' about June Whitfield
I can't hear you now, I can't hear you
Yeah, well, you're thinkin' about June Whitfield
That's who you were thinking about
I have to think about somebody, you told me Kylie
Well, listen, you just came in wrong
And then it got progressively worse from there
What?
You started wrong and then, it just went worse
Can't hear you, cuttin' out
It went bad, bad, bad right towards the end
Who said bad when you sang?
No, when you sang
No
Yes, you can hear me, don't, look, look
What? Who said that?
You started this on your last album
I don't want anythin' to do with it
I'm going, goodbye
