True Grief

Once upon a stage

And he been a phrase

The public has come to see

The sa adest singer

And he's playing

Playing the song

And it's a classic

And his fingers

Fingers are bleeding

And his heart is aching out loud

And the people are clapping and clapping and clapping

And clapping

And the song he is playing just goes on and

On and on

And it seems like it will never stop

Then everybody gets up and does a hop yeah

Then the entertainer

Chained to the piano

Gives a nervous grin

To the massive crowd

He says here's one about

The day I really broke my heart

And he sheds a tear the audience applauds

Everyone shouting he's so sincere

I can't believe he's here

The he does his famous

Song of sorrow

And his melody of pain

And he bows

And the curtain falls

And the white in his eyes

Is reflecting light

From the ceiling

As he prays alone a silent prayer

To his lover

Whom he lost

Whom he sings about

Whom he thinks about

All the time

He sits for a little bit

And then he writes

Another hit
