Old Lovers Lyrics by Tom Odell & The Lumineers

[Verse 1: Tom Odell]
Here we are
Two strangers standing in the doorway of a bar
Nervously talking about the past
Easy to laugh about it now
Wasn't so long ago
It hurt just to hear your name

[Chorus: Tom Odell]
Can old lovers ever just be friends?
One drink, it all comes flooding back again
You look at me and you smile
I think I haven't felt like this in a while
And we look out at the rain
And we see how much our lives have changed
Our future's rearranged
But somehow just the same

[Verse 2: Wesley Shultz]
And here we are
Two strangers standing on the pavemеnt by a car
You rest your head upon my arm
Easy to laugh about it now
I watch your cigarettе go out
On the pavement

[Chorus: Tom Odell & Wesley Shultz]
Can old lovers ever just be friends?
One drink and go their separate ways again?
You look like you wanna fight
I think maybe it's time I said goodnight
But I'm happy that I came
Just to see your eyes still have their flame
Their beauty and their pain

[Bridge: Tom Odell & Wesley Shultz]
It feels like yesterday
That I was yours and you were mine
And we were living in parallel lines
And you buttoned up your coat
And the bill gets paid
And we leave behind this life
We almost made

[Chorus: Tom Odell & Wesley Shultz]
Can old lovers ever just be friends?
One drink, and go their separate ways again?
You look at me and you smile
I think I haven't felt like this in a while
When we look out at the rain
Then we see how much our lives have changed
Can we ever make amends?
Can old lovers still be friends?

[Outro: Tom Odell & Wesley Shultz, Wesley Shultz]
La, la, la-la, la-la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la-la, la-la (La-la-la-la)
La, la, la-la, la-la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la-la, la-la
