"Okay Piano Guy" lyrics
"Okay Piano Guy"
Four years ago
At that bar in Brooklyn
You were singing along to Carole King
I said that's the first song I ever learned how to play
And you laughed and didn't say anything
So I said I'd love to play it with you sometime
And you said "okay piano guy"
What I wouldn't give to sing it with you one more time
That first night on Franklin
In our empty apartment
Just a piano that was so out of tune
We drank wine out of coffee cups
Watched movies on a laptop
And ate pad thai like finger food
You insisted I played
And you danced round the place
Did cartwheels in the kitchen
With that smile on your face
We didn't know what would happen
But it could all be okay
If you just kept dancing
And I just kept playing
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
Standing on the edge of my dreams
In a room built for basketball teams
Everyone singing along but in my head
It's just you and the piano and me
Right then did you already know?
You were living a life you were meant to outgrow
Dimming your light to leave room for the nights
Being mine made you less of your own
Last night alone at your grandparent's place
Drinking wine out of glasses from their wedding day
Moon prints in my palms
From holding on too strong
To a moment
That's probably
Already gone
I'd love to be wrong
For as long as I can
Stare at your baby pictures
On their baby grand
You sing You've Got a Friend
I don't want it to end
So I play the wrong chords
To hear the chorus again
Can you just keep dancing
The way that you do
And I'll just keep playing
And looking at you
Can you sing it to me one more time?
Can I always be your piano guy?
Can I always be your piano guy?
Can I always be your piano guy?

I pictured us in that house that I dreamed of with you
Look at us now, I'm packing my things
Now memories are just empty rooms
I thought that I could be a little bit stronger...
Billie Eilish - "TV" I don't wanna talk right now
I just wanna watch TV
I'll stay in the pool and drown
So I don't have to watch you leave
I put on Survivor just to watch somebody suffer
Maybe I should get some sleep...
Lewis Capaldi - "Leaving My Love Behind" I don't know how we got to where we are
So far removed I don't know where to start
'Cause I've been away for
Far too long but I implore you please hold on
I beg you please hold on
Love don't come...
James Arthur - "Can I Be Him" You walked into the room
And now my heart has been stolen
You took me back in time to when I was unbroken
Now you're all I want
And I knew it from the very first moment
'Cause a light came on when I...
