oh dear piano player
can't you just play that tune for me
one more time
can't you just pull
your shit together
just one more time
then we could dance
this horrible night away
and we'll keep the rhythm
of this song
with the motions
of our hands on
each other's bodies
and the way our lips will move
saying sweet nothings
the straight black and white feeling
has faded
into a boring shade of gray
