Playback Lyrics by Jon St. James

Trans-Atlantic

0

(Playback)
(Playback, playback, playback)

It's a polyphonic sound
It's the shape of things
It's a very modern century that we're living in

You were seventeen when I was nine
I saw you take my sister to bed that time
I was young, but I knew
I'd want to

Play back, baby, play back your love for me
Play it in the studio, play it in on the radio
Playback
(Playback)

It's a day in my life
It's the coldest yet
You sit there with your tanqueray
And a cigarette

Dis-moi ce que tu connais
Donne-moi ce que tu dis
I'm not gonna wait around for you to

Play back, baby, play back your love for me
Play it in the studio, play it in on the radio
Playback
(Playback)

It's the supersonic look of the things to come
It's the jet age now that we're coming from
You're a high-tech man of discovery
But you walk away and leave me here in misery
Alors, just walk on

Play back, baby, play back your love for me
Play it in the studio, play it in on the radio
Playback

Play back, baby, play back your love for me
Play it in the studio, play it in on the radio
Playback
Playback

Play back, baby, play back your love for me
Play it in the studio, play it in on the radio
Playback
Playback

Play back, baby, play back your love for me
Play it in the studio, play it in on the radio
Playback
Playback

Play back, baby, play back your love for me
Play it in the studio, play it in on the radio
Playback
(Playback)

Play back, baby, play back your love for me

(Playback)

Play back, baby, play back your love for me

(Playback, playback, playback, playback)
