Now when you open your mouth, what comes out

What's the first word, what's the first line?

When you open your mouth and love comes out

Then you know, you just sang the clear line

I've heard people say it a thousand times

In a thousand different ways

I've heard people play it a thousand times

And they know, they know that's the only way

To play.



You got to

Play on love

Play on love

Play on love

Play on love.



Now are you talking about what it is you know

Or just repeating what it was you heard

Someone told you just exactly what to say

And you know, you know that's only one set

Of words

You got to play on love.



I've heard people say it a thousand times

In a thousand different ways

I've heard people play it a thousand times

And they know that's the only way to play

You been a reading it without living it

Now that's the golden prison we can always find

Living in stories and living in books or

We can live and leave all the stories behind.



It's up to you and it's up to me

Come down yelling timber through the

Burning trees

Who's been telling you about perfection

And how did he get in here, that's the question.



He must've

Played on love

Played on love

Played on love

Played on love.



I've heard people say it a thousand times....



You got to

Play on love

Play on love

Play on love

Play on love.



Reading it without living it...



You got to

Play on love

Play on love

Play on love

Play on love.
