I heard an old song playing on the jukebox
Ol' Otis singing about life down by the docks
It was an old familiar tune, one that leaves me sad, leaves me so blue
Off the record baby, I never stopped loving you
I wonder where you are sometimes in your big city nightlife
Lord knows I'm feeling mighty bad for myself in every roadside dive
I did many things I can't undo, said many words that were never true
Off the record baby, I never stopped loving you
A dream is only a dream
Yea darling, until you awake
Pain, it's never really pain
At least not until you feel your heart break
Let me tell you all about it baby
Come tomorrow, I'm gonna be your something borrowed
I'll be broken and blue for you
Yea and along will come a day when your vows are exchanged
Wedding bells will ring, glasses will be raised
I know you've waited your whole life for this day to come true
Off the record, I never stopped loving you
Now I'm singing out some brand new tune
Hoping I can find someone to love me too
Off the record baby, I never stopped loving you
No I never did and I'm sure I never will
