lyrics

I lived in a house with hardwood floors
And an old upright piano in the corner
Spent most of my time behind closed doors
Spinning worn out yarns to a tired tape recorder

I'd be up all night just banging out songs
When the words came right then it wouldn't take long
I had found my voice and it came out strong
Filling me up full enough that I believed I could be almost anything
I believed I could be almost anything

Moved out west to pursue my dreams
Lost my mother to the cancer after just three weeks
Now my spirit seems to suffer from the same disease
And it's all I have left just to mutter my sorry pleas:

Help me sound like I thought I would
Please help me sing like I knew I could
But most of all, won't you write the words that seem to escape me
Most of all, won't you write the words that seem to escape me

I lived in a house with hardwood floors
I lived in a house with hardwood floors
I lived in a house with hardwood floors
And an old upright piano in the corner
