Текст песни
[Куплет 1] We pulled the blinds at the back of the hall While the last bus sighed past the avenue Nico had a borrowed telecaster Mara kept time with a pencil and shoe You found a chord none of us could name I hummed a line and you handed it back By half past two we had something to keep A little tune with a place in its track [Предприпев] We never wrote the hour down We just knew when it was right [Припев] Play it like we did that night When the whole room found the same note You take the high part, i’ll take the line Let the old friends carry it home Years go by, but one thing stays That turn we made when the melody took flight So come on, play it like we did that night [Куплет 2] Tonight there’s a circle of familiar faces Some brought their kids, some brought their old jokes Sam still leans back before the downbeat Ruth still laughs when the first string chokes I tell them how we missed the last train And walked to the harbor with cases in hand Then we sang our way through the blue hour Like we’d invented the whole wide band [Предприпев] No grand plan, no perfect take Just a room that wouldn’t let us quit [Припев] Play it like we did that night When the whole room found the same note You take the high part, i’ll take the line Let the old friends carry it home Years go by, but one thing stays That turn we made when the melody took flight So come on, play it like we did that night [Бридж] The names of those chords have slipped away But i can still hear where your voice came in That little pause before we all joined in That’s the part i keep remembering [Final chorus] Play it like we did that night Let the whole room find the same note You take the high part, i’ll take the line Let these good friends carry it home Years go by, and still it stays That turn we made when the melody took flight One more time, play it like we did that night [Аутро] You take the high part I’ll take the line We’ll know it together Every time
