  • Let's go down to the bar
    Like we did in the old days
    We'll sit down, buy us a beer
    I'll come over all coy
    Like they do in the movies
    "What's someone like you doing here?"

    We'll use all our old lines
    "Don't I know you from somewhere?"
    We'll pretend we're with somebody new
    We'll call us a taxi
    Pull me into the backseat
    And love me like you used to do
    Whoa, love me like you used to do

    Well, life ain't always roses
    Let's forget all our woe-ses
    And go out and pick up some wine
    We'll come back to the house
    When we're all out of money
    And we'll have us a real swingin' time

    We work all the week
    Let's call out tomorrow
    And do what it takes to get through
    Maybe light me some candles
    Chase each other around
    And love me like you used to do
    Oh, and love me like you used to do

    We've got time
    I know we do
    We've got all our troubles combined
    We've got time
    I know we do
    And I believe in us, honey
    Most of the time

    We've got old skeletons
    Secrets and baggage
    And deceit and half-truths and lies
    All kinds of trust issues
    Empty boxes of tissues
    And we won't see through each other's eyes
    Using drugs for the masses
    Rose-colored glasses
    'Til we can't even see what is true
    Throw it all on the bonfire
    Burn it all down
    And love me like you used to do
    Oh, and love me like you used to do
    Oh, and love me like you used to do Writer/s: Steven Knudson
