That One Song
There he goes again
Playing in another smokey bar
Every piece of gear he owns
Fits inside the trunk of his old car
Another night of music
No one understands
He'll be up there playing
With magic in his hands
Flip the switch and turn the sound up even louder
Then he hears someone screaming from the crowd
Heard him say
Hey, Can you play
That one song by that one guy
You know the one
The one that always makes you cry
If you know it can you play it
I got two bucks here if you can
Play that one song by that one guy
Damn... I love your band
Putin' on her makeup
Finding clothes to wear
She's feeling really low tonight
Couldn't care less if they stare
Another night of just sittin'
All alone at the bar
She loves to listen to the band play
And smiles to hide her scars
She remembers better days
when he was by her side
When his music made her smile
but now it makes her cry
She's thinkin
Hey, hope he plays
That one song by that one guy
He knows the one
That one that always makes her cry
She knows he wrote it, and hope he plays it
She always feels good when he does
Play that one song by that one guy
Damn.... she's still in love
Bridge
Playing to the crowd, looking at the faces
Is that her over there, how dark this damn place is
He remembers a time long ago
she was there in every room
When the lights were bright and the she was his
It was gone way too soon
She was gone way too soon
Lead
Breaking down the equipment
Packing up the trunk
Wondering why he still does this
Always leaves him in a funk
Tired of the nightclubs
All these places are insane
But his music is his life blood
So he'll do it all again
When they say
Hey, Can you play
That one song by that one guy
You know the one
That one that always makes us cry
If you know it would you play it
I got two bucks here if you can
Play that one song by that one guy
Damn... we love your band
She'll never understand
How much he loves his band |
