Lyrics 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 there's dancin' 'cross the floor ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
And then the band slowed the tempo and the music gets me 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 of 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
And now I'm staring at the bodies as they 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
Ooh
Now I wind up staring at an empty glass ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
'Cos 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 oh oh
They just don't write 'em like that anymore
They just don't
No they don't
They don't
No
They just don't write 'em like that anymore
