Black notes here on the keyboard
Blue notes here in my heart
When love goes into a free fall
It rips your very soul apart

But I've got one thing that's a remedy
I find some words and a melody
And somehow, I am a better me

When my life's lost in sorrow
I'm losing sight of my tomorrows
I sit right here at my old piano
I sit and play my old piano
Yeah

When love goes major to minor
And I give in to my fears
There's one friend I rely on
Who's always there to share my tears

When hope is gone and I want to die
I write myself a lullaby
And baby, that's why I'm alive

When my life's lost in sorrow
I'm losing sight of my tomorrows
I sit right here at my old piano
I sit and play my old piano
I sit right here at my old piano
I sit right here at my old piano
I sit right here at my old piano

I sit right here at my old piano
I sit right here at my old piano
I sit and play this old piano
