I Haven't Played This Song In Years |
Just beyond my windowpane, I saw you |
Walking in the rain away from me |
Visions of your future lay before you |
You are free |
I saw you in the company of strangers |
Laughing just a little bit too loud |
Looking at reflections in a mirror |
I can see the smiling faces |
But not me among the crowd |
Wondering how |
I wish that I could play this like a love song |
So I could shape it like I wanted to |
I’d make it purely from the heart |
I know that surely from the heart |
There only comes the gentlest of tunes |
But where are you? |
We tried to set the world on fire |
And almost did with our desire |
Two of us and maybe more |
Kids inside a candy store |
Sparks of joy and celebration |
Suddenly we’re drowned beneath the tears |
And baby, you’re the reason that |
I haven’t played this song in years |
Yes baby, you’re the reason that |
I haven’t played this song in years |
Some believe in magic potions |
Heads all full of crazy notions |
Castles built upon a sandy shore |
Only magic I believe in |
Is the magic I receive from |
Loving you and needing nothing more |
Nothing more |
We never heard each other’s cries |
That’s how lovers turn to lies |
When I gave, you wanted more |
Then suddenly we’re keeping score |
I forgave your small deceptions |
Till I couldn’t hide my deepest fears |
And baby, you’re the reason that |
I haven’t played this song in years |
Yes baby, you’re the reason that |
I haven' t played this song in years |
