The Broken Piano

Lyrics

Every song I sing has a broken melody
No matter where the song might stop or start.
Every note I play seems to be just out of tune
Even when I play it from the heart.

I used to sing.
I used to soar.
I can’t find it anymore.
The tune’s all wrong.
My broken song.
The music’s gone but these tattered keys don’t care.
Will you please still let me play?
I want to hear my song the way
it used to be
when you loved me.
A broken song is all I have to share

Every note I hear
now sounds painful to my ear.
Perhaps I’m just remembering the past.
We played in perfect tune.
We could captivate a room.
I thought those melodies would always last.

We used to sing.
We used to soar.
I can’t find it anymore.
The tune’s all wrong.
A broken song.
The music’s gone but these tattered keys don’t care.
Will you please still sit and play?
I long to hear my song the way
it used to be
when you loved me.
A broken song is all I have to share.

I used to sing.
I used to soar.
I can’t find it anymore.
The tune’s all wrong.
My broken song.
The music’s gone but these tattered keys don’t care.
I’m not beautiful or new
but I still have a song for you.
I’m not yet through.
I’ll play for you.
Even if a broken song is all we share.
