Sleeping On My Piano

I was gonna write you back

Now I write you back but write you back

You never wrote me

Thought if I wrote you something beautiful

Something so beautiful that you would know

I was gonna make it right

Black and white in black on white

Day and night

Minor chords to try to fix a major fight

But there’s another on your mind tonight

And I swore, I swore I was gonna get you back

But the thing is this song, this song is keeping us apart

I fell asleep on my piano, piano

Said I fell asleep on my piano

And the melody goes waitin', waitin', waitin' (For so long)

Waitin’, waitin’, waitin’ (Waitin')

And the melody goes waitin’, waitin’ waitin’ (For so long)

Waitin’, waitin’, waitin’

I was hoping to

Push a set of keys that could open you

Write a melody I could have spoken through

But all you gotta see that I'm broken too

We've been making memories

Now everything that's left is all these melodies

The pen and the paper turned to enemies

Just when I was trying to write our remedy

And I swore, I swore I was gonna get you back

But the thing is this song, this song is keeping us apart

I'll write you symphonies and novels, declaration of dependence

Testaments and bibles, just promise that you won't end this

Operas and odyseys, lullabies and poetry

Just to make you re-notice me, just to make you

Though I let you know

My timing is terrible, bought a metronome

Always thought a dissonance would get you home

The symphony's over, but I can't let you go
