The days we spent together
Were filled with sounds of love and laughter.
We spent the nights and mornings after
Again, and again.

A year ago we parted.
The sunshine dimmed, the music faded,
And all these months that I have waited
I got over you but then--

I hear the sounds from my piano
And my mind goes back to you.
Back to the days before the sorrow--
Before the day we said we're through.

No other sound can make me wonder
Why a love can't stay and grow.
A simple tune can bring me under--
I think of you and can't let go.

I can hear waves crashing
Near the beach we used to walk on.
The telephone we used to talk on
Rings, but I don't care.

The sound of children playing
Outside my window doesn't mean much;
I don't miss the warmth of your touch--
Only one thing makes me aware:

I hear the sounds from my piano
And my mind goes back to you.
Back to the days before the sorrow--
Before the day we said we're through.

No other sound can make me wonder
Why a love can't stay and grow.
A simple tune can bring me under--
I think of you and can't let go.

I can hear my footsteps
Echo down the empty hallways,
I know you think I'll love you always,
But, you'd be wrong.

Nothing seems to move me.
Not carols sung on Christmas morning,
Nor rustle of the leaves at dawning--
Only when I hear our song.

I hear the sounds from my piano
And my mind goes back to you.
Back to the days before the sorrow--
Before the day we said we're through.

No other sound can make me wonder
Why a love can't stay and grow.
A simple tune can bring me under--
I think of you and can't let go.

I think of you and can't let go.
