Piano Lyrics - Singles - Coretta Scott

I am black keys scattered and afraid 

sounds like our notes could never agree 

Perfectly ivory 

play me something happy 

The eyes that trace cedar and feel melody 

or those that just stare and never agree 

Perfectly ivory 

Play me something happy 

Finding the note to end on 

21 years and the same selfish song 

God put you in my piano love dreams 

All of my warm words are coming out mean 

Finding the note to end on 

21 years and the same selfish song 

God put you in my piano love dreams 

So don't wake me up while I sleep 

Woke up alone again 

and I traced the sheets to find you'd left 

left side of my bed, left side of my chest 

wanted something bigger than myself 

and if I could take care of you, taking care of me 

we could be so happy 

promise me that you're 

promise me that you're 

promise me that you're happy 

(Perfectly ivory, play me something happy) 

the hardest part of this is 

the hardest part of this is 

the hardest part of this is 

letting go
