Press Play

You struck a chord and found a way

To voice the words I couldn't say

My one regret now is that I never saw you play

But still your records will survive

And I can play them anytime

And through the dark spots, they'll still provide me with some light

Whoa oh, oh, oh

Even if you're gone

Whoa oh, oh, oh

We can sing along

By pressing play, I drift away

The needle finds its way around

And suddenly the troubles of the day

Just melt away

And everything can seem alright

Even if it's only for the night

Now when I put your record on

It warps me back into that time

And all those old thoughts and feelings surface from inside

And even as I grow with age

Your words have taken on new shape

Still learn from the songs that first inspired me to play

So many others came along, and I've heard a million songs

But none of them affected me the same

You came around when I was weak, and helped me through

The hardest years

But there was nothing I could do when you had needed

Saving too
