Smash movie

Smash movie - Second Hand White Baby Grand lyrics

rate me

My mother bought it secondhand from a silent movie star

It was out of tune but still I learned to play

And with each note we both would smile forgetting who we are

And all the pain would simply fly away

Something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound

Even if it doesn't have a place to live

Oh, the words were left unspoken when my momma came around

But that Secondhand White Baby Grand still had something beautiful to give

Through missing keys and broken strings the music was our own

Until the day we said our last goodbyes

The baby grand was sent away, a child all alone, to pray somebody else would realize

That something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound

Even if it doesn't have a place to live

Oh. the words are still unspoken now that momma's not around

But that Secondhand White Baby Grand still has something beautiful to give

For many years the music had to roam

Until we found a way to find a home.

So now I wake up every day and see her standing there.

Just waiting for a partner to compose

And I wish my mother still could hear

That sound beyond compare

I'll play her song till everybody knows.

That something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound

Don't we all deserve a family room to live

Oh. the words can't stay unspoken until everyone has found

That Secondhand White Baby Grand that still has something beautiful to give.

I still have something beautiful to give.
