The Songs the Same

Verse 1

I used to sing it just to sing along

Windows down, radio on

Didn’t know what it was talkin’ ’bout

Just liked the way it sounded real loud

Back then it was just words and time

I was Rhymin’ love with a good line

I thought I felt it, I thought I knew

But I didn’t then — not like I do

⸻

Chorus

I used to hear it, now I feel it

That’s the difference, that’s the truth

It was just a song ’til someone

Went and made me live it too

Funny how a melody can change its tone

Once you’ve loved like that before

Yeah, the song’s the same

But I’m not anymore

Verse 2

I hear it now and I can see

Every fight up at every 2 a.m.

Every time love felt like fire

Burnin’ hot but wearin’ thin

Now a quiet kind of love comes on

And I know I should let it in

But this song still pulls me back

To the way it hit back then

Chorus

I used to hear it, now I feel it

That’s the difference, that’s the truth

It was just a song ’til someone

Went and made me live it too

Funny how a melody can change its tone

Once you’ve loved like that before

Yeah, the song’s the same

But I’m not anymore

⸻

Bridge

Now it plays when things are calm

And I don’t know what to do

’Cause I learned love at its loudest

From the way it sounded with you

So when it comes on I go quiet

I Let it say what I won’t say

’Cause some songs just don’t hit the same

Once they’ve hit that way

⸻

Outro

So I let it play, don’t sing along

Just listen from where I am

Funny how a three-minute song

Can still shake who I am

Final chorus

I used to hear it, now I feel it

That’s the difference, that’s the truth

It was just a song ’til someone

Went and made me live it too

Funny how a melody can change its tone

Once you’ve loved like that before

Yeah, the song’s the same

But I’m not anymore

I’m not anymore
