Lyrics

VERSE:
HE LOOKED A LITTLE HAGGARD SITTING IN THE SHADOWS
LIKE AN OLD WEATHERED STATUE FROM ANOTHER PLACE AND TIME
I ASKED IF I COULD JOIN HIM, HE SAID SURE SON, BUT BETTER WARN YA
WHAT I?VE GOT TO SAY? MIGHT? JUST MAKE YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND
I LAUGHED, AND SAID BARTENDER, TWO MORE LONG NECKS IF YOU PLEASE
THEN THE OLD MAN BEGAN TO TELL ME?HOW IT USED TO BE?HE SAID

CHORUS:
THIS USED TO BE OUR PLACE
THIS USED TO BE OUR SONG
EVERYBODY?S DANCING LIKE WE USED TO
THAT USED TO BE HER CHAIR
I STILL SEE HER SITTING THERE
NOW SHE WAITS FOR ME TO DRINK US BACK
TO WHERE WE USED TO BE

VERSE:
HE SAID, I STILL SEE MY JENNY OVER BY THE JUKE BOX
GENTLY SWAYING TO THE MUSIC TAHT WAS PLAYIN' SOFT AND SWEET
WALTZING ?CROSS THE DANCE FLOOR LIKE A SHIP CAUGHT IN A TRADE WIND
HE SAID, SHE ALWAYS DID AMAZE ME? CUZ, ME, I GOT TWO LEFT FEET
THEN HE SHOUTED, HEY BARTENDER TWO MORE LONG NECKS IF YOU PLEASE
MY YOUNG FRIEND WANTS TO HEAR ABOUT HOW IT USED TO BE?THEN HE SAID

REPEAT CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
SUDDENLY I REALIZED?AN OLD WOMAN STOOD BESIDE HIM
THEN LOVINGLY HE TOOK HER HAND
THEN DISAPPEARED WHILE THEY WERE DANCING

VERSE:
I SAID, BARTENDER? MAN DID YOU SEE THAT
HE SAID , YES, SON, I SAW IT. SEE IT EVERY FRIDAY NITE
YOU?RE NOT THE FIRST TO MEET OLE BERT, AND I?M CERTAIN? NOT THE LAST
HE'S BEEN WAITIN' HERE FOR JENNY SINCE THE DAY HIS DARLIN' DIED
THEN I NOTICED TWO FULL LONG NECKS ON THE TABLE WHERE WE SAT
AND SCRAWLED THERE ON A NAPKIN, THE WORDS,??SON, WE?LL BE BACK?
BECAUSE?
