It's the Same Old Story - Billie Holiday, Don Byas, Teddy Wilson

The same old story

It’s as old as the stars above

The same old story

Of a boy and a girl in love

The scenes say more moonlight

The times say more June light

Romance’s the thing

Two hearts away deep in a dream

The same old story

It’s been told much too much before

The same old story

But it’s worth telling just once more

It’s all fun and laughter

They lived ever after in ecstacy

The same old story but it’s new to me
