Play Opposite Songtext
von Jamie Lawson

String lights hang from a tree in your garden
Decorate all of your darkness
The night has a star with your name on
A gift from an ex that you no longer talk to
Though you see from time to time
Sometimes you sing along to the radio
Old fashioned songs that your mum loved
You′re dressed in a bathrobe kimono
Pretending that you're in a film that I remember
Where you′ll drive off into the sunset


If only the real world could be like these dreams
And all that we've ever done is dance to the music
And you could be anyone and I would play opposite

Bookshelves in alphabetical order
A globe where it snows down on you
Your dreams you could have been an author
In a previous life having scandalous affairs
Where you're torn off in society pages

If only the real world could be like these dreams
And all that we′ve ever done is dance to the music
And you could be anyone and I would play opposite you
Every night you go to sleep
You go to sleep
