The Old Songs

(专辑： Time Waits For No One - 1989)

Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
Backtrack along with me
Through those old sweet melodies
Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
How they bring back memories
Of the way love used to be

It was all so simple then
Slow dancing there in the den
To the tune "Blowing In The Wind"
Scanning through The Hit Parade
Hanging out at the record shop
Learning how to do the cha-cha-cha
Back when Sam Cooke was hot
Twisting the night away (away)

Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
Backtrack along with me
Through those old sweet melodies
Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
How they bring back memories
Of the way love used to be

Oh, I wish they'd play "My Girl"
"Twist And Shout" and "The Duke Of Earl"
James Brown's "It's A Man's World"
"Love Makes The World Go Round"
Oh, I wanna hear "Yesterday"
"Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay"
The old songs have a special place
Oh, how sweet the sound

Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
Backtrack along with me
Through those old sweet melodies
Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
How they bring back memories
Of the way love used to be
Mm hmm

If I could catch a ride, I'd go back in time
To that very first day when I realized that you were mine
The old songs have a way of bringing back to mind
The love we shared, the joys and smiles we left behind
So…

Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
Backtrack along with me
Through those old sweet melodies
Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
How they bring back memories
Of the way love used to be

Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
Backtrack along with me
Through those old sweet melodies
Turn the radio on
They're playing the old songs
How they bring back memories
Of the way love used to be
