Candle's burnin', glasses are chilled 
And soon she'll be by 
Hope and pray she'll say that she's willing 
To give another try 
And if all these plans I made 
Don't melt the lady's heart 
I'll put on the old forty-five
Maybe the old songs 
Will bring back the old times 
Maybe the old lines will sound new 
Maybe she'll lay her head on my shoulder 
Maybe old feelings will come true
Maybe we'll start to cry 
And wonder why we ever walked away 
Maybe the old songs 
Will bring back the old times 
And make her wanna stay 

It's been too long without seeing her face light up 
When I come home 
Been too many hours I've waited 
Staring at the phone 
Sweet old songs, I'm countin' on you 
Bring her back to me 
I'm tired of listenin' alone 

Maybe the old songs 
Will bring back the old times 
Maybe the old lines will sound new 
Maybe she'll lay her head on my shoulder 
And maybe old feelings will come through 
Maybe we'll start to cry 
And wonder why we ever walked away 
Maybe the old songs 
Will bring back the old times 
Make her wanna stay 

And make her wanna stay 
And make her wanna stay
