Matt Monroe The Music Played Lyrics

An angry silence lay, where love had been
and in your eyes a look, i've never seen
If I had found the words, you might have stayed
but as i turned to speak, the music played.

As lovers danced their way, around the floor
I sat and watched you walk, towards the door
I heard a friend of yours suggest you stayed
and as you took his hand, the music played.

Across the darkened room, the faintest signs I saw
he'd been something more than friends before
While I was hurting you, by clinging to my pride
he had been waiting, and I drove him, to your side.

I couldn't say the things, I should have said
refused to let my heart control my head
But I was made to see, the price I paid
and as he held you close, the music played.

And as I lost your love, the music played.....
