There's a man with a face like sorrow Now he's gone for good How could anyone hold you without feeling good? There's a shop where the thoughts that I borrow Swim around my head like snow How could anyone ignore you? So play on, play on, play on The skies are made vermillion We're singing in a concrete star Oh we're all just castles in the cards There's a hope in my blood when I see you I hear crashing drums How could any other language hope to lead me on? Little sparks in the puddles shoot like darts At all the things we might be
You and me And time itself is frozen So play on, play on, play on The skies are made vermillion We're k**ing all the saints tonight Oh play on, you shadows of the light So play on, play on, play on The skies are made vermillion If all I was was all I felt Then the sun itself would start to melt Into waterfalls pouring down like song Oh play on So play on, play on, play on The skies are made vermillion k**ing all the saints tonight Oh we're all just dancers in the night
