Minor Piano Keys testo

Say, say something nice to her

Fragrant and sturdier

Delicate hands for shoulders sliding down

Days, days like a summer rain

Blink and they're gone again

Soaking she sits alone, outside and down



Prays, prays for a soldier boy

In fire and angry noise

Under the thumb of the Lord

And waits, quilting and quietly

Her minor piano keys

Slip through the screen of the door



Say, say what you mean to her

Washing her colander

Eyes on the stranger cresting 'round the bend

Days, days like the winter snow

Linger 'til heaven knows

Naked she sings the table grace and then



Prays, prays for her soldier boy

In fire and angry noise

Under the thumb of the lord

And waits, quilting and quietly

Minor piano keys

Slip through the screen of the door
