Once upon a dream
There was a Song.
Once upon a life
Time far gone
Once upon a Tune
That once could be
Once upon a day
There was me.

The songs were played
On black and white keys
The tunes were shared
From the heart of me
The sound that came forth
Was pure joy to the ear
None better did they hear.

In days of yore
The days long gone
I was given much
In the world of song
The hands, they flew
Over keys of white
The sound carried
Deep in the night.

Now I sit
In this old room
Gathering dust
In the gloom
Whiling away
The time so long
Dreaming of
A time long gone.

Won't you sit
And hear my tune?
Help me to
Dispel the gloom
All I ask
Is for one song
Just so I can
Move along.

Won't you stay
And play me
I beg of you
Please set me free
My keys don't play
The days are cold
I know that I am
Getting old

But just one more song
Only a tune
I just want
To leave here soon
While my dreams
Are still with me
While my heart
Can still be free

I beg of you
To set me free
Just once would you
Come play me.
