Piano Teacher Lyrics by Will Gardiner

My Butterfly Collection

2022

[Verse 1]
I took piano lessons when I was young
My mom drove me there every week
I never did practice enough
But I still loved to learn and play the keys
My teacher was a lovely woman
I would play with her son
But one day I remember
The floodgates came undone
I started crying during the lesson
I couldn’t articulate why
Just that something had happened
And all I could do was cry
[Chorus]
What if I could’ve said all that
What if I could’ve said his name
I know I can’t undo the past
But I think about what could’ve changed
[Verse 2]
Of course I playеd it off as something else
To bе honest I didn’t really know
I cried a lot when I was young
I became good at hiding the flow
Now I know just what it was
Why I was scared of those stairs at night
I’ll never be free from this fear
Only drag it out into the light
[Chorus]
What if I could’ve said all that
What if I could’ve said his name
I know I can’t undo the past
But I think about what could’ve changed
[Bridge]
Fear worked itself into my life
In every corner of my soul
When I recount these stories of agony
I hope to free them and make me whole
[Chorus]
What if I could’ve said all that
What if I could’ve said his name
I know I can’t undo the past
But I think about what could’ve changed
