Lyrics[]
Once I had a dream
I thought we had everything
Living such a perfect life, we had it all
And our love took flight deep into the night
Now I’m alone again
But I’m, I’m gonna be strong
And the tears that I have cried you’ll never see
Oh, but crying in vain was never for me
Don’t play that song again
Reminding me of how it used to be
Don’t play that song again
I wish it could be like before
When you were here with me, oh yeah
Oh DJ, please don’t play
Don’t play that song again
(Song again)
Time, time changes everything
And that’s what they say
But it’s too late for regrets when all’s said and done
It just wasn’t meant to be, now I’m the lonely one
Don’t play that song again
Reminding me of how it used to be
Don’t play that song again
I wish it could be like before
When you were here with me, oh yeah
Oh DJ, please don’t play
Don’t play that song again
Don’t play that song again
Reminding me of how it used to be
Don’t play that song again
I wish it could be like before
When you were here with me, oh yeah
Oh DJ, please don’t play
Don’t play that song again
(Song again)
No, oh deejay, please don’t play
Don’t play that song again
That song again
Don’t play that song again
