When The Music Played

When The Music Played

(Album: Wonder Days - 2015)

I was only a kid back in 71
When I found a new place to go
Under the-covers by the light of the moon
Listening to the radio
And the sound that I heard painted pictures
and dreams
And memories so magical
Now I search down the dial
for some kind of spark
To light a fire in my soul

'Cause it's been so long and it's still so strong
That nothing else can get to me the same
So I close my eyes and I turn back time
And go back, back when the music played

I held my vinyl like a new born child
Memorising every word
Every cover was a window
into a far off special world
Through the summer nights, love bites,
music was there
I wrapped it around myself
And every single song that I loved so much
It's still there on the shelf

And it's been so long but it's still so strong
When I don't know if I'll make it through the day
I close my eyes and turn back time
And go back, back when the music played

Hey boy, what you doing it for?
It was music that mattered but it ain't no more
The right demographic, the data and facts
Is all that we need then we'll fill in the gaps
Hey boy, what you doing it for?

We need to listen with our innocence
Protect the little kid inside
You'll hear nothing with a cynical ear

And a hard heart can never fly
I'm just happy I'm old enough
To recall when rock was young
All the joy of discovering
When there Were still songs to be sung

'Cause it's been so long
And it's still so strong
That nothing else can net to me the same
So I close my eyes and I turn back time
And go back, back when the music played
