PIANO, PLAY ME

             Piano,  Play Me

            Piano, play me

            With wordless tune

            Through breezeless desert

            And 'round the moon.

            Piano, play me

            On black and white

            Pale ivory chords

            That gleam in night.

            Piano, play me

            Forgotten songs

            Like footprints, written

            To guide me on.

            Oh, let me hear

            Your thunderous roar

            Your soft, sweet ebb

            Upon the shore.

            Like starlight falling

            From skies above

            Raise me up high

            To fall in love.

            Your keys have glory

            And notes of gold

            Soothe newborn tantrums

            And hearts grown old.

            How many masters

            Composed and wept

            Upon your keyboards

            While dreamers slept.

            Piano, play me

            Let me draw near

            To music's kingdom   

            Within my ear.

            Piano, play me

            Like rain falls down

            In hands of rapture

            Oh, let me drown.
