173 - THINGS
Verse 1
Every night I sit here by my window (window)
Staring at the lonely avenue (avenue)
Watching lovers holding hands and laughing (laughing)
And thinking ‘bout the things we used to do----
Chorus
Thinking of things like a walk in the park
Things – like a kiss in the dark
Things – like a sail boat ride
What about the night we cried?
Things – like a lover’s vow
Things that we don’t do now
Thinking ‘bout the things we used to do----
Verse 2
Memories are all I have to cling to (cling to)
And heartaches are the friends I’m talking to (talking to)
When I’m not thinking of just how much I love you (love you)
Well I’m thinking ‘bout the things we used to do
Chorus
Thinking of things—-
like a walk in the park
Things —-
like a kiss in the dark
Things –
like a sail boat ride
What about the night we cried?
Things —-
like a lover’s vow
Things--
that we don’t do now
Thinking ‘bout the things we used to do----
INSTRUMENTAL
Verse 3
Still can hear the jukebox softly playing (playing)
And the face I see each day belongs to you (belongs to you)
Though there’s not a single sound and there’s nobody else around
Well there’s-a just me thinking ‘bout the things we used to do.
Chorus
Thinking of things like a walk in the park
Things – like a kiss in the dark
Things – like a sail boat ride
What about the night we cried?
Things – like a lover’s vow
Things that we don’t do now
Thinking ‘bout the things we used to do----
