That's been used a million times
Of that old familiar story
That's where the line begins
I shall be waiting for your call
That's been used a million times
He doesn't have to wait
To ease a million minds
And see you when I can and try to understand
So then let us treat our love like any game
Must come to drive the night away
For as surely as the light of day
That there must be two of us
There are times when I have told you
The needles and the pins
With your magnificent outpouring
That's been used a million times
That's been used a million times
With your magnificent outpouring
Of that old familiar story
To ease a million minds
Of that old familiar story
Then I must hide my thoughts away
To fan the flames would really be a sin
To try to work things out
Pretending it is spring and you'll be mine again
To ease a million minds
For as surely as the snow must fall
Of that old familiar story
With your magnificent outpouring
With your magnificent outpouring
But if I can't see you everyday
