Old TV Shows

(álbum: Only Smith & Burrows Is Good Enough - 2021)

I can see where we used to be, where we used to sit outside
We thought love would never leave us behind
I can see where we used to be, where we laid our heads to rest
Each night would show us something new
And it hurts when we pass and look away
We soared so high, we had to fall
That's just the way

Oh, come look at us now
A broken record will last forever
You couldn't pick us out of the crowd
When it worked just couldn't miss us
It's over like top of the pops
Just a day the time's had its way with
Over and over we'd lay
Memories like old TV shows

I go back to where it all went wrong
To where I thought this story might end
Wonder, would you throw me something new?
I could never see that it started with me
But then I guess I was holding you back
I was just too blind to see
That it might hurt
When we pass and look away
We soared so high, we had to fall
That's just the way

Oh, come look at us now
A broken record will last forever
You couldn't pick us out of the crowd
When it worked just couldn't miss us
It's over like top of the pops
Just a day the time's had its way with
Over and over we'd lay
Memories like old TV shows
Memories like old TV shows
Memories like old TV shows

You're not listening
You're not listening to me
Like you listen to sad songs
I'm not listening if you're not listening to me
Like you listen to sad songs

I can see where we used to be, where we used to pass the time
We thought love would never let us down
Now all you see is a reflection of me and hear the sad songs from the past
In a place I thought we'd never be
And now it hurts when we pass and look away
We soared so high, we had to fall
That's just the way

Oh, come look at us now
A broken record will last forever
You couldn't pick us out of the crowd
When it worked just couldn't miss us
It's over like top of the pops
Just a day the time's had its way with
Over and over we'd learn
Memories like old TV shows
Memories like old TV shows
Memories like old TV shows

You're not listening
You're not listening to me
Like you listen to sad songs (Memories like old TV shows)
I'm not listening if you're not listening to me (Memories like old TV shows)
