My Friend the Piano

You carried my emotions from the start Each emotion bound in the small black note Each one coming straight from my chilly heart The music you make is my antidote Through the preludes my comfort softly lay By way of mazurkas my soul does fly But to divulge you must learn how to play Although learning is not a piece of pie Piano brings emotions around town You have the power to bring my heart up Or throw me on the floor and beat me down There are hard times when I just want to cup My hands in my face and rock back and forth And think Piano is a friend of worth
