Play Me Back In Time

PLAY ME BACK IN TIME
written by Doug Moreland, ASCAP (composer/author and publisher) & Billy Applegate

Played these bars for so long now
got myself a neon name
win or lose, pay your dues, play the game

The midnight life of a guitar man
ain’t what she had in mind
there’s power in music, even more power in time

Play me back in time
take me back to yesterday
help me find the love I must’ve up and threw away
Play me back in time
right back to the start
the lonely road is hard on a man running on an empty heart

I’m gonna take this ol’ jukebox
my fiddle amp and a couple of clocks
build me some kinda machine that transcends time

Whenever it plays A-23
I’m back there and your holdin’ me
ambition fuels mans dreams, but its foolin' mine

Play me back in time
take me back to yesterday
help me find the love I must’ve up and threw away
Play me back in time
right back to the start
the lonely road is hard on a man running on an empty heart
the lonely road is hard on a man running on an empty heart
