Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I see you every Tuesday afternoon
Through the window of your living room
That old xylophone still shines so bright
As you show me how the music flows just right
And you tell me 'bout the concert halls
Black and white photos on your walls
[Pre-chorus]
Your eyes light up with every note
As memories from long ago float
Through the air between us now
(La la la, oh-oh)
[Chorus]
Your fingers still dance across those wooden bars
Playing melodies that carried you so far
I could listen here for hours and hours more
To the songs that shaped the life you lived before
(La la di da, oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
You played in orchestras coast to coast
Prague to Paris, the shows you loved the most
Now in this quiet neighborhood you stay
But the magic hasn't faded away
When you play that simple tune
Time stops still in this small room
[Pre-chorus]
Each story has a melody
That sets those memories free
And I'm so lucky just to know
(La la la, oh-oh)
[Breakdown]
[Soft xylophone notes]
Sometimes you pause and smile at me
Say music's all you'll ever need
The simple joy of making sound
Is the treasure you have found
[Chorus]
Your fingers still dance across those wooden bars
Playing melodies that carried you so far
I could listen here for hours and hours more
To the songs that shaped the life you lived before
(La la di da, oh-oh)
