A Piano Songtext

von Haley Bonar

The king and queen of many things
But not the cuckoo's colored wings
Had laughed at me and everything
Around the land that lay so barren
I still wonder if they're laughin'
In the dark with folded hands and
Swollen choreographed speeches
Read the cards and we will teach you
How to see through looking glass and
How to fight a thousand deaths and
Come out sober

And blame you for nothing

I headed for the mountains and I
Walked up to the great green trees but
They just stared right back at me
Said I could stay here through my pain
Could learn to make my tears the rain
For branches that would still remain
You must be tough to be a tree
To take the claws and winter breeze
You love him more than you will know
You'll fight a war and kill some men
You'll take the long way back to him

We could move out west and buy a piano
We can move out west and buy a piano
