Sat around the table, the candle lying low

There's people all around us but they're leaving you alone

You're telling me a story, some lover that you had

Go on tell me now, tell me now, I think I'll understand.

The piano man is playing some old melody

It don't mean much to anyone while it does to you and me

It's just some bitter love song that everybody's heard

I'm gonna sing it out, sing it out, sing every single word.

It's the same old constellation

The stars up in the sky

Yeah, I've got a feeling

They're gonna look different tonight.

Maybe I'm just crazy, maybe I'm just high

You could kiss my lips a thousand times and they would never dry

I don't know where you're going, hey, never stray too far

Cause I'll tell you now, I'll tell you now, I like you just the way you are.

It's the same old constellation

The stars up in the sky

Yeah, I've got a feeling

They're gonna look different tonight.

It's the same old situation

That you can have with any guy

But go on put your arms around me

It's gonna be different tonight.

Caroline, caroline, I used to act so strong

But I was just terrified, terrified, I feel it in my stomach

Call 'em butterflies, butterflies, there's something in the air tonight

They're gone, they're gone, they're gone.

It's the same old constellation

The stars up in the sky

But you know I've got a feeling

They're gonna look different tonight.

It's the same old conversation

You can have it anytime

Go on put your arms around me, baby

It's gonna be different tonight.
