“Another Jukebox Song” (Long Version)

“Another Jukebox Song” (Long Version)
Copyright by Frank A DeCenso, Jr.

[Vs1]
I still recall us throwing stones at tired rusty cars –
Just lonely highway coffins at the back of Sam's junkyard –
Those autumn skies bore streaks of flame,
That blew a warming breeze;
It whispered through your hair each night,
As we'd sneak behind Oak trees.

[Vs2]
The sands have fallen swiftly but your eyes are still the same –
Our feelings were like voiceless ghosts and we both share the blame –
We could have had it all back then,
But then just slipped away;
Tonight is begging for a chance,
To bring a brand new day.

CHORUS
That old jukebox still plays songs,
When passion fills the air –
Let’s start a new tomorrow now,
And see what song is there…

[Vs3]
This night can hold us hostage and I wouldn’t care at all –
The touch of your lost beauty leaves me mysteries to solve –
My lips are melting in your smile,
As I fall into your eyes;
Fading in this atmosphere,
Are yesterday's goodbyes...

CHORUS
That old jukebox still plays songs,
When passion fills the air –
Let’s start a new tomorrow now,
And see what song is there…

[BRIDGE]
Those rusty cars still sit alone,
Surrounded by cold steel;
Without a ride they'll never know,
Just how some highways feel;
We hold the keys that we once lost,
And horizon’s sky is red;
Hold on tight – we’ll ride all night,
There’s more just up ahead…

CHORUS 2
That old jukebox plays our songs,
When passion fills the air –
Let’s start a new tomorrow now,
And see what song is there…
Let’s hold and dance – we can’t be wrong,
If we were right back then –
That old jukebox can bring us back,
To start it all again.
