Hey there lonely girl can I sit with you
I've just got to find someone to tell my story to
You've heard it all before now here it is once more
And please kiss away my tears when I am through
It's just the same old story once again with a sweet beginning and a bitter end
A love affair that didn't turn out right
And the world has one more broken heart tonight
Would you like to dance oh you know it's been a long time
Since I had a woman satisfy my urge
But you know it never works a false love won't take away hurt
But just pretend I'm him and I'll pretend you're her
And it'll be just the same old story
And the world had one more broken heart tonight
I've just got to find someone to tell my story to
You've heard it all before now here it is once more
And please kiss away my tears when I am through
It's just the same old story once again with a sweet beginning and a bitter end
A love affair that didn't turn out right
And the world has one more broken heart tonight
Would you like to dance oh you know it's been a long time
Since I had a woman satisfy my urge
But you know it never works a false love won't take away hurt
But just pretend I'm him and I'll pretend you're her
And it'll be just the same old story
And the world had one more broken heart tonight
