The Songs Aren’t the Same (Without You)

I’ve tried Elton
I’ve tried Elvis
I’ve listened to rock and blues
But the songs, they aren’t the same
Without you

I’ve put on Waylon
Sung with Willie
Drank with George Jones too
But the songs just aren’t the same
Without you

What a sentimental fool I am
For some sweet words and a sad melody
Tonight it’s just me and this old radio
Singing to your memory

Tuned into Opera
Tried closing my eyes
Hum with Sinatra tunes
But the songs, they aren’t the same
Without you

Guitar solo

The echos of the Motown girls
Remind me of our sweet harmony
And the cryin’ of the steel guitar
Take me back to we used to be

Words have no meaning
Since you’ve been gone
I can’t sing like I used to do
Cause the songs just aren’t the same
Without you
The songs just aren’t the same
Without you
