Lyrics
In a drawer at the old machine shop Sits a tape with a faded label top Songs we played at lunch Songs we shared in a bunch Play it again, play it slow Songs from long ago Sorry for the years I stayed away I'm coming back to play Play it again, play it slow Songs from long ago My old friend hands me the tape Dust and oil and a heart that aches Press the button down Hiss and humming sound Play it again, play it slow Songs from long ago Sorry for the years I stayed away I'm coming back to play Play it again, play it slow Songs from long ago Side A, side B Just you and me Hands that built it all Hear the old songs call Play it again, play it slow Songs from long ago Sorry for the years I stayed away I'm coming back to play Play it again, play it slow Songs from long ago Play it again Songs from long ago
