Every time he hears that song

His heart will ache

Like it's going to break

All over again

He does his best to keep it in



He hears the words in that tune

And she's in the room

He can smell her perfume

But it's all in his mind

She's been gone a long long time



And the song

Puts her back in his arms.

He feels the heat from her skin

The memories rush in

And he longs for love that's gone.



And the song

Takes him to that place

Where all his world was right

She was there every night

Now she only comes back

Every time he hears that song

Every time he hears that song



Still knows it word for word

He can hear her sing

Sounds like a dream

That stopped coming true

It's just an echo in an empty room.



Swears if he could just get back

Then love would fall

He could change it all

But those days are gone

And that song plays on and on



And the song

Puts her back in his arms.

He feels from the heat from her skin

The memories rush in

And he longs for love that's gone.



And the song

Takes him to that place

Where all his world was right

She was there every night

Now she only comes back

Every time he hears that song

Every time he hears that song
