so treacherous is this
music and its bliss
so hopeful was I
I would never try

something to share
is always there
something to fear
is always here

why tell if we know
it's been a show
why tell if we feel
it's as confusing as real

high notes are
reaching for the stars
low notes sound
keeping us on the ground

a piano remains
a violin in chains
a romance for two
has always been true
