Going up and going down But one beat that we never forget babe City's here but we are gone One voice that's stuck in our head, yeah We slip away, go find another start But we are longing for the ways behind It's gettin' late though And just one melody remains To fill the room It's the same old song To which we'd rather sing along Than the one that we might find But never stays in mind Going right and going wrong (One beat that we never forget babe) Going back where we belong (That's why we keep singin' along yeah) That's why we keep singin' along To that rusty song we know by heart The one we've never tried Might sound too high It's gettin' late though And just one melody remains To fill the room It's the same old song To which we'd rather sing along Than the one that we might find But never stays in mind When the beat starts we are thrilled Move our feet like we've got no other will Words are flowing out like a stream Evermore as we repeat and repeat It's gettin' late though And still one melody remains To fill the room It's the same old song To which we'd rather sing along The one that we might find Although we know It's gettin' late Oh this melody remains whoo whoo It's the same old song To which we'd rather sing along But the one that we've denied Someday will stay in mind
