The Breakup Song Lyrics

LRC - AirGuitar, NYC, 7/09/06

We had broken up for good

Just an hour before,

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

And now I'm staring at the bodies

As they're dancing 'cross the floor.

And then the band slowed the tempo

And the music gets you down.

It was the same old song

With a melancholy sound.

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,

But now it feels so strange

Out of the atmospheres.

And then the jukebox plays

A song I used to know.

As they're dancing so slow.

Mmmm

Now ?

I wind up staring

At an empty glass

Cause it's so easy to say

That you'll forget your past.

No

Oh

They just don't

No they don't

No no

Uh-u
