Play Me
Neil Diamond


She was morning and I was night time
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed
I softly said
"Come take me"
For I've been lonely in need of someone
As though I'd done someone wrong somewhere
But I don't know where
I don't know where, come lately

You are the sun
I am the moon
You are the words
I am the tune
Play Me

Song she sang to me, song she brang to me.
Words that rang in me,

Rhyme that sprang from me, warmed the night.

And what was right,

Became me.

You are the sun,
I am the moon.
You are the words,
I am the tune.
Play Me.

And so it was that I came to travel,

Upon a road that was,

Thorned and narrow.  Another place,

Another grace,

Would save me.

You are the sun,
I am the moon.
You are the words,
I am the tune.
Play Me.

You are the sun,
I am the moon.
You are the words,
I am the tune.

Play Me.
