White Piano - Áine Cahill

It’s a Friday night I’m all alone

When I’m sitting on a couch in my living room drinking champagne on my own

Watching TV and running my fingers through my hair

Thinking 'bout how my life would’ve been different if you had been there

But you were taking away from me when I was just a child

When I never knew the way of life or the way that you smiled

You were taking away from me when I was just a little girl

I thought how could someone do this cause my mama is my world

So I sit down and I play my white piano

It’s the only thing you gave to me before you had to go

So I sit down and I play my white piano

It’s the only thing I have left of you, it’s all I’ll ever know

It’s a Friday night, I’m thinking of you

About how how you never tried to love me or how you never wanted to

Laying in my bed, I’m starting to weep

Well I’ve taking all my meds and my sleeping pills

Just wishing you were here

But you were taking away from me when I was just a child

When I never knew the way of life or the way that you smiled

You were taking away from me when I was just a little girl

I thought how could someone do this cause my mama is my world

So I sit down and I play my white piano

It’s the only thing you gave to me before you had to go

So I sit down and I play my white piano

It’s the only thing I have left of you, it’s all I’ll ever know

And I bring that white piano with me everywhere I go

Cause I dream of you, my family too it’s what I’m yearning for
