The Breakup Song (They Don't Write 'Em)

We had broken up for good just an hour before

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancin' 'cross the floor

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

And then the band slowed the tempo and the music gets you down

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

It was the same old song with the melancholy sound

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

They don't write 'em like that anymore

They just don't write 'em like that anymore

We'd been living together for a million years

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

But now it feel so strange out in the atmospheres

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancin' so slow

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

They don't write 'em like that anymore

They don't write 'em like that anymore

Now I wind up staring at an empty glass

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

'Cause it's so easy to say that you'll forget your past

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

They don't write 'em like that anymore

No! They just don't write 'em like that anymore

They don't write 'em like that anymore

They just don't write 'em like that anymore

They just don't

No, they don't!

No, no

Uh uh!

They just don't write 'em like that anymore

They just don't, no they don't
