PUBLISHED:  Jun 14, 2013
DESCRIPTION:
After over 40 years of vocal experience, Engelbert re-recorded his classics, in his latest greatest hits collection, Legacy of Love, accompanied by the Prague Symphony Orchestra.

The original recording of this Engelbert classic, "The Way It Used To Be" was released 41 years ago, in 1969. This latest version of the song along with the rest of the selections from Legacy of Love is proof that Engelbert's voice keeps getting better and better as time goes by. It features Engelbert at his absolute best, with a singing that deserves a grade of nothing less than an A+.

Lyrics:

Lonely table just for one
In a bright and crowded room
While the music has begun
I drink to memories in the gloom
Though the music's still the same
It has a bittersweet refrain

So play the song the way it used to be
Before she left and changed it all to sadness
And maybe if she's passing by the window
She will hear a love song
And a melody
And even if the words are not so tender
She will always remember
The way it used to be

Friends stop by and say hello
And I laugh and hide the pain
It's quite easy 'til they go
Then the song begins again

So play the song the way it used to be
Before she left and changed it all to sadness
And maybe if she's passing by the window
She will hear a love song
And a melody
And even if the words are not so tender
She will always remember
The way it used to be
