A broken piano, forgotten memories, and a melody that refuses to die. A song for the souls who still miss places and people they can't return to.
Ding… da-ding…
Do you remember me?
There's a crack inside my melody
A note that never learned to leave
Dust collects where my heart once played
And all my songs are half-decayed
The curtains dance, but there's no breeze
A thousand words stuck in my keys
Somebody loved me long ago
I can't recall them, but I know…
I was somebody's lullaby
I was somebody's favourite sound
Now the moon comes through the ceiling
And the silence holds me down
Play me, play me, play me slow
I'm the song you used to know
Love me, leave me, let me rot
I'm the only thing you've got
La-da-da, la-da-die
Hear the little piano cry
La-da-da, la-da-done
I'm a lost and lonely song
Play me once before you go
I'm afraid of being left alone.
My ivory teeth are turning grey
I lose a little more each day
The bench still waits, the room stays cold
I'm getting tired of growing old
I hear your footsteps in the hall
I swear I hear you when I fall
But every time I sing your name
The room forgets me all the same
Was I ever really here?
Was there someone who could hear?
I keep playing the same refrain
Like a prayer inside the rain
Play me, play me, play me slow
I'm the song you used to know
Love me, leave me, let me rot
I'm the only thing you've got
La-da-da, la-da-die
Hear the little piano cry
La-da-da, la-da-done
I'm a lost and lonely song
Play me once before you go
I'm afraid of being left alone.
One key missing
Two strings broken
Three words left
That went unspoken
Come back… come back…
The melody bends
The record spins
I start again
I start again
Play me, play me, soft and low
There's nowhere else for me to go
Hold me like you held me then
Wind me up and start again
La-da-da, la-da-die…
Don't let the last note say goodbye…
La-da-da…
I think…
I used to be beautiful.
Do you remember me?
