Let The Band Play On Lyrics

When believing was young we used to stay out late

And we'd listen to the radio

For hours I would hold you close as the band played on

Just a young boy and girl growing up in the world

Barely knowing enough to get by

But the years have made us wise, and still the band plays on

So won't you play me a song, I remember it well

It's been so long but still I can tell you the first time

I ever heard it played

Now, they only play it now and then

But it always takes me way back when

So play, let the band play on

When believing was young we used to stay out late

And we'd listen to the radio

For hours I would hold you close as the band played on

But now there's highways between us and lovers that share

The things that we wanted

But left back there, so play, let the band play on

Won't you play me a song, I remember it well

It's been so long but still I can tell you the first time

I ever heard it played

Now, they only play it now and then

But it always takes me way back when

So play, let the band play on

Yes, they only play it now and then

But it always takes me way back when

So play, let the band play on

When believing was young we used to stay out late

And we'd listen to the radio

For hours I would hold you close as the band played on

Just a young boy and girl growing up in the world

Barely knowing enough to get by
