Do you know how to play the music like this?
Fast and strong like a racing horse,
Or slow and steady like a turtle on the course.
Gentle as a river, rough as the sea;
Far more vast than any eye can see.
The rhythmic beat of my heart against the hammer,
Emits a plea that has me enamored.
Yes, those are the right keys,
They almost bring me to my knees.
My love and my passion flow through the measures;
The melodic ring of ivory pleasures.
Now do you know why I play the music like this?
She has always been the key.
