A Band Named Brian - Play Lyrics

When it starts to rain from pure blue sky
Look above - ask yourself why
When the air is clear for miles around
Water's falling to the ground
The open road fades away
Remember how we used to play
Losing sight of here and now
Try to get it back somehow
And play, play, today
When you start to cry from smiling eyes
Look inside; something dies
Are you being true, being real
What's dictating how you feel
Playing games that don't feel right
Blinded by an unseen light
Have you forgotten how to see
To run and dance and sing and be
And play, play, just play, play
So play, today
We used to run, used to hide
Used to jump, used to slide
Used to laugh, used to cry
Used to live, used to die
And we used to think, we used to care
Used to drink, we used to share
Used to smoke, used to dare
Used to hope there was something there
And we used to trip, we used to dream
We used to skip, we used to scream
Used to dig, used to dive
Used to laugh, feel alive
And play, play just play, play
So play, today
When it starts to rain from pure blue sky
Look above - ask yourself why
When the air is clear for miles around
Water's falling to the ground
The open road fades away
Remember how we used to play
Losing sight of here and now
Try to get it back somehow
And play, play, today
Just play
