Find The Key (JLP Version) Lyrics by Jonathan Larson

The Jonathan Larson Project

2019

[Andy Mientus]
She's walking, he's sitting
He plays a dark C minor chord
It's like the keyboard is his heart
He hears the clock
He hugs the cat— no
He kicks the cat
He pumps the volume higher
A fire's just about to start
Why can't, why can't I
Why can't I find the key?
Why can't I find the key?
[Nick Blaemire]
Door closes, he freezes
He sees it's hard to end duets
He lets his fingers feel the way
He loves her, he's lost her
He's hearing melancholy strings
That sing the things that hе can't say
Why can't, why can't I
Why can't I find the key?
Why can't I find the kеy?
[George Salazar]
He can't imagine what he should have said
It's all been said and sounds cliché
He's at the bridge between his head, which says it's dead
And his heart, which says, don't let her get away
She's gone now, he's singing
He hears no two-part harmony
He looks around, this can't be real
Depression, a dark progression
Why can he only sing it?
What will it take to make him feel?
[All]
Why can't, why can't I
Why can't I find the key?
Why can't I find the
Why can't I find the
Why can't I find the key?
[George]
Why can't I find the key?
Why, why can't I
Why, why can't I
Why, why can't I find the key
Why, why can't I find the key
[Nick]
And then somehow
[Andy]
Somehow
[George]
Somehow
[All]
It ends
