Play Me Lyrics

Harry Belafonte Play Me

She was morning and I was night time
I one day woke up to find her lying 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

Songs she sang to me
Songs she brought to me
Words that rang in me
Rhymes 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
