Play Me a Song
Play me a song
Make it one of love
Make the notes high
Make them soar like doves
Play me a song
Make it break my heart
With it’s sweet melody
Make it tare me apart
Play me a song
That’ll have me in tears
By the time it’s over with
I will live out my fears
Play me a song
That’ll lull me to sleep
Just like those fake promises
You promise you’ll keep
Play me a song
That says you’ll never leave
Make the keys sing
So I can’t tell you deceive
Play me a song
Play me a beautiful lie
Make it convincing enough
So I won’t have to say goodbye
