The Song

Play me two chords, play me two more Just something that's worked before I don't care if it sounds like a hundred songs I just want something to make me sing along Make me feel alright, make me feel alive Make me feel like staying up all night Make miss my family, wanna call my friends Make me wanna start writing down poems Again I don't know how I heard it I guess it was not where I thought it would be It wasn't played on the TV It wasn't on Radio 3 It wasn't shared, it wasn't free It wasn't in my dad's box of LPs It wasn't by my favourite band It wasn't played for clapping hands It was the song you sang to me It was your words that set me free It was the song you sang to me Those words meant everything to me So I play that song on repeat It makes me wanna dance, wanna shuffle my feet Makes me wanna get up in the morning Break into laughter without any warning Let's go for coffee, make a pot of tea Sing that lovely song to me Stare at the sun until we can't see And sing that lovely song To me And I don't know how I heard it I guess it was not where I thought it would be It wasn't floating in the sea It wasn't blowing in the breeze It wasn't on the mountain top It wasn't in the sky above It wasn't space, it wasn't God It wasn't anything I thought It was the song you sang to me It was your words that set me free It was the song you sang to me Those words meant everything to me I don't know how I heard it I guess it was not where I thought it would be And I don't know just how I heard it But I guess that it was not where I thought it would be When I found it, it kinda sounded like It was the song you sang to me It was your words that set me free It was the song you sang to me Those words meant everything to me
