From Piano Lyrics

Sweet song with a quiet rain

From piano came where I sat all alone

I was fifteen in the room by the front door

I hoped you would come to my house to say hello

I saw what the boys would say

Of the girls next door who weren't wearing enough clothes

I wrote in a journal full of notes

About my little girlish hope to one day be really loved

You were there when I was young and

Thought of as someone who

Always had my hands clean

It was not my choice to question

The lions in my head

I don't wanna let you down

I don't wanna let you down

You were someone who I knew I could trust

In sickness or in lust I would stand by your side

I was nineteen with a timid optimism

Fearful of a schism of what God ordained

You are here though I am young and

Thought of as someone who

Always has my hands clean

It was not my choice to question

The lions in my head

I don't wanna let you down

I don't wanna let you down

I've been fighting not to ask you

Why you chose to tell me

That I have the choice

Fear is crippling it

Breaks my legs from underneath

I don't wanna let you down

I don't wanna let you down

I don't wanna let you down

I don't wanna let you
