When I was younger, I loved to play.
The piano was my favorite game.
I wanted it to take me all the way,
but I fell and I made a mistake.

I can't play anymore.
I can't go back to how it was before.
You, you can play.
You can put my song on display.
That's good enough for me anyway.

I can't play how I used to.
I let my talent rust in the corner, unlike you.
I could never play like that again it's true.
I left all of that behind in a locked room.

But you, when you play,
I wanna cry, because I could never play again.
I can't, I couldn't find the feeling.
I can't play.
Not like before.
Not anymore.

That song is no longer on my play list.
That was my last chance, my last kiss.
I haven't played like that, it is however, something I miss.

But I could never play for the judges or the crowd,
I'd only let myself down. I can't play that round.
To be honest with you, I do miss that sound.

But, I would never be able to put on a performance I'd be proud of. What I have just isn't enough.
Music is something I love, but, what I have isn't good enough.
