Play me like a piano
imagine your hands on cool ivory
feel the keys warm under your breath
Play the higher parts first
with diligence go down the scale
do not leave a single key untouched
practise every day
think of tension building up
with tender finger exercise
Rule out the fear of dissonances
improvise on the patterns of my melody
be patient and the day will come
when you finally perform a masterpiece
You'll listen to the crescendo of my soul
make me forget who I've been
when you evoke a thousand colours
out of my black-and-white thinking
play me like a piano.
