The Old Songs (alternate take) Lyrics

Candles Burnin, 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've made
don't melt the lady's heart,
I'll put on the old 45s
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 shoulder
Maybe old feelings will come through
Maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why
we ever walked away
Maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
and make her want to 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 wasted
staring at the phone
Sweet old songs I'm countin on ya,
to bring her back to me
I'm tired of listenin alone.
Or 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 shoulder
Maybe old feelings will come through
Or maybe we'll start to cry and wonder why
we ever walked away
Maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
and make her want to stay
And make her want to stay
Want to stay

Or maybe we'll start to cry
and wonder why we ever walked away
Maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
and make her want to stay

And make her want to stay
