Josh Groban - Play Me Lyrics

Josh Groban Lyrics

"Play Me"
(originally by Neil Diamond)

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

[Instrumental]

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" was the first single from Neil Diamond's album "Moods" (1972).

Josh Groban performed this song at Grammys MusiCares Person of the Year ceremony, honoring Neil Diamond on the 6th of February 2009. Groban said of the event, "Not only is it a great night to celebrate Neil and his music, and music in general, but also a way to get a lot of attention for what MusiCares really means, which is artists helping artists and people in the music industry giving back to those that have come before them and those that need our help."
