Lyrics for Song: I Haven't Played This Song In Years
Lyrics for Album: Stages - Performances - 1970-2002 [2003]



Just beyond my windowpane, I saw you

Walking in the rain away from me

Visions of your future lay before you

You are free

I saw you in the company of strangers

Laughing just a little bit too loud

Looking at reflections in a mirror

I can see the smiling faces

But not me among the crowd

Wondering how

I wish that I could play this like a love song

So I could shape it like I wanted to

I'd make it purely from the heart

I know that surely from the heart

There only comes the gentlest of tunes

But where are you?

We tried to set the world on fire

And almost did with our desire

Two of us and maybe more

Kids inside a candy store

Sparks of joy and celebration

Suddenly we're drowned beneath the tears

And baby, you're the reason that

I haven't played this song in years

Yes baby, you're the reason that

I haven't played this song in years

Some believe in magic potions

Heads all full of crazy notions

Castles built upon a sandy shore

Only magic I believe in

Is the magic I receive from

Loving you and needing nothing more

Nothing more

We never heard each other's cries

That's how lovers turn to lies

When I gave, you wanted more

Then suddenly we're keeping score

I forgave your small deceptions

Till I couldn't hide my deepest fears

And baby, you're the reason that

I haven't played this song in years

yes baby, you're the reason that

I haven' t played this song in years
