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 

song she sang to me 
song she brang to me
words that rang in me
rhyme 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

you are the sun, i am the moon
you are the words, i am the tune 
play me

you are the sun, i am the moon
you are the words, i am the tune 
play me
play me
play me
