가사
(Verse 1)
I'm Ada McGrath, fair countenance,
Silent burden in a bygone trance.
Marriage decree, sold away, you see,
To Alisdair Stewart, land of liberty.
(Chorus)
Piano, my refuge, where my voice found wings,
Sign language, music, my means to sing.
On desolate shores, with Flora, my dear,
Awaiting fate uncertain, shadows draw near.
(Verse 2)
Alisdair and his crew, they came and left,
But my cherished piano, they bereft.
In desolation, yearning for love's embrace,
I vowed to play with black keys, defying space.
(Chorus)
Piano, my solace, testament of strife,
Defiance through music, the rhythm of life.
Alisdair, possessed by his jealous desire,
Obsession transforming into unholy fire.
(Bridge)
In self-discovery, my sensuality blooms,
Embracing my essence, dispelling gloom.
George, the retired sailor, captured by my sound,
He made an offer, land for piano unbound.
(Bridge)
In self-discovery, my sensuality blooms,
Embracing my essence, dispelling gloom.
George, the retired sailor, captured by my sound,
He made an offer, land for piano unbound.
(Chorus)
Enraged by audacity, I resisted his plea,
Continuing my journey with black keys, free.
Alisdair, consumed by venomous sting,
Shadowing my steps, possessiveness it brings.
(Verse 3)
In the forest's depths, our worlds collide,
His actions crude, my essence defied.
Promises coerced, against my own will,
He sought to sever ties, George's love to spill.
(Chorus)
A package arrived, with a key engraved,
Flora torn between loyalties, love enslaved.
Alisdair, in fury, claimed victory grotesque,
Severing my finger, a savage request.
(Verse 4)
Flora carried the severed finger with dread,
Warning George, stay away or more would be shed.
In the stillness of night, Alisdair heard,
My voice, pleading for freedom, undeterred.
(Chorus)
George confronted, denying all knowledge,
Faithful to our secret, protecting our pledge.
Together we fled, seeking solace and peace,
With piano and belongings, our souls release.
(Bridge)
Rowing towards the ocean's vast embrace,
I urged George to cast the piano, a symbolic chase.
But fate intervened, my leg entwined,
Dragging me down, despair redefined.

[Clear Guitar Solo]
(Chorus)
Yet in that moment, a change of heart arose,
Fighting for breath, determination arose.
In Nelson, new life, joy in our home,
Resuming piano lessons, no longer alone.
(Verse 5)
A metal finger crafted, burden eased,
Human ingenuity, fate appeased.
Practicing, regaining my voice's might,
Dreams intertwined with the ocean's delight.
(Chorus)
No longer tethered, I soar like a dove,
Survivor and dreamer, reborn through love.
Beloved piano, where dreams now reside,
Synergy of passion, forever my guide.
[End Song]
