Things Lyrics

[Verse 1: Dean Martin & Nancy Sinatra]
Every night I sit here by my window (Window)
Staring at the lonely avenue (Avenue)
Watching lovers holdin' hands and laughin' (Ha ha ha)
Thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do

[Chorus: Dean Martin & Nancy Sinatra]
(Thinkin' 'bout things)
Like a walk in the park (Things)
Like a kiss in the dark (Things)
Like a sailboat ride (Yeah, yeah)
What about the night we cried
Things like a lover's vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do

[Verse 2: Dean Martin & Nancy Sinatra]
Memories are all I have to cling to (Cling to)
And heartaches are the friends I'm talkin' to
(But you got me now)
When I'm not thinkin' of just how much I love you
(I love you, too)
I'm thinkin' the things we used to do (Used to do)

[Chorus: Dean Martin & Nancy Sinatra]
(Thinkin' 'bout things)
Like a walk in the park (Things)
Like a kiss in the dark (Things)
Like a sailboat ride (Yeah-yeah)
What about the night we cried
Things like a lover's vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinkin' about the things we used to do
[Verse 3: Dean Martin & Nancy Sinatra]
I still can hear the jukebox softly playin' (Playin')
And the face I see each day belongs to you
(Belongs to you)
But there's not a single sound
And there's nobody else around
But that's just me thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
(We used to do)

[Chorus: Dean Martin, Nancy Sinatra, Both]
(Thinkin' 'bout things)
Like a walk in the park (Lots of things)
Like a kiss in the dark (Yeah, things)
Like a sailboat ride (Whoa-whoa)
What about the night that we cried
Things like a lover's vow
Things that we don't do now
Thinkin' about the things we used to do

[Outro: Dean Martin, Nancy Sinatra, Both]
And heartaches are the friends I'm talkin' to
You got me thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
(Ha ha, I hope so)
Thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
