A long long time ago
I can still remember how
that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while.

But February made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died

(I started singing)
So bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Then good old boys were
drinkin' whiskey and rye,
singin'
this'll be the day that I die.
This'll be the day that I die.

It repeats 15 times and is pretty much all that is sung for the second half of the song.

This line is repeated 4 times in the chorus, which is repeated about 4 times throughout the entire song (though the last time the chorus is repeated, the lead singer breaks it up with "you know they're gonna break your young heart"). Also the line "the story of a young heart" is repeated four times in the verses.

Pretty obvious.

What's the only way you can "feel" someone's moan? There you go.

If you can't figure it out you are either unbelievably slow or have serious mental problems.

ummmm, it said earlier in the song that it was his daughter and now he is saying that it makes him horney?? hah thats kinda NASTY!! but thats my favoritist songgg!

Wow I never thought that there could be anyone who's more concieted than Justin Timberlake is but here's the proof.

The whole song is conceited. She's basically saying that she's all that and a bag of chips.

This band makes the most repeitive song lyrics I have ever heard. Every other line includes the song title. Nonetheless, I am a fan.

Ok I love this song as the essential break up anthem, but honestly, intoleration? You guys could do better than that!

It actually it should be: Sometimes I wish she were you I don't know why they didn't use "were" it still works.

We know? It's we knew. Either that Or I misheard the lyrics...WE KNOW?!?
