I've been sittin' here all night long Watching the night unfold I hear a sad sentimental song What a lovely way to grow old All that's left for me is to reminisce Too late to talk, too far away to kiss I'll forget about you after I'm through Painting this old town blue I got a lot of good feelings babe It's got nowhere to go If it was love you were stealing babe I just forgot to let go But all I need is just a little more time A little less memory and a little more wine I'll forget about you after I'm through Painting this old town blue A velvet haze is falling around my head And clouding up my view Your memory is flowing, the wine is red Honey, my eyes are too But all I need is just a little more time A little less memory and a little more wine I'll forget about you after I'm through Painting this old town blue, oh yeah Painting this old town blue Painting this old town blue
