“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.
