Caught off guard, I was drinking with old friends

When the bar started playing your tunes

I and heard your voice, above all the noise

There was nothing that I could do

Love turns to smoke
F C/G C/G F G G
Dreams turn to dust but that old melody’s just the same

My heart still burns, my stomach still turns

When I hear the songs of an old flame

For losing myself in the game

But your songs still burn through the night

Love turns to smoke

Dreams turn to dust but that old melody’s just the same
