There’s an old piano
Playing out of tune
In an old house
Sitting in a quiet room
I enjoy its company
It seems to understand me
It’s been years since
Anyone has stroked its keys
So I play it
The melodies are bittersweet
And though the sound’s a little rough
The music still lingers inside
And I recognize the song
Cause I’ve been lonely before
Sometimes I feel
Like an old piano too
There’s an old piano
That’s been covered in dust
And if you listen
Sometimes you can hear it cry
“I remember how it felt
To be good enough for someone else”
And with each new note
Pictures start to come alive
Ghosts from the past
Silently begin to rise
And they dance around the room
Like the piano isn’t out of tune
And I’ve memorized the steps
Spinning around all by myself
For the next time I meet up with loneliness
As the piano sings the song
I’ve heard many times before
Sometimes I feel like an old piano...
Too
Playing out of tune
In an old house
Sitting in a quiet room
I enjoy its company
It seems to understand me
It’s been years since
Anyone has stroked its keys
So I play it
The melodies are bittersweet
And though the sound’s a little rough
The music still lingers inside
And I recognize the song
Cause I’ve been lonely before
Sometimes I feel
Like an old piano too
There’s an old piano
That’s been covered in dust
And if you listen
Sometimes you can hear it cry
“I remember how it felt
To be good enough for someone else”
And with each new note
Pictures start to come alive
Ghosts from the past
Silently begin to rise
And they dance around the room
Like the piano isn’t out of tune
And I’ve memorized the steps
Spinning around all by myself
For the next time I meet up with loneliness
As the piano sings the song
I’ve heard many times before
Sometimes I feel like an old piano...
Too
