Art Garfunkel - The Same Old Tears On a New Background Lyrics

Artist: Art Garfunkel

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Stephen Bishop

It's the same old tears on a new background
Seeing you as a fading photograph
It hurts too much to laugh these days
Alright, yes, alright, alright

It's the same old song with a new melody
But this old candle's lingering flame is almost gone
To see you again is all that keeps me hanging on
But I'm alright, yes, alright, alright

Remembering, remembering
The familiar heartache
No one but you

It's the same old me crying the same old tears
And I walk away like I always do
Still in love with you
Alright, yes, alright, alright, alright
