no matter where I go
no matter how I smile
no matter who I talk to and
no matter my style
no matter what my schedule
no matter who my friends
there’s nothing very special
when the long day ends, it’s just
me and my piano, me and my piano
me and my piano, all night long
now if you try songwriting
it ain’t all that exciting
but it sure does feels inviting
with the lights down low
if you need some inspiration
just write for night’s duration
till the bright inauguration
of the morning glow, just like
me and my piano, me and my piano
me and my piano, all night long
I played Chopin real softly
and then some old Tchaikovsky
creative juice and coffee
kept me out of bed
with songs that wax satiric
blue and atmospheric
but I got this silly lyric
runnin' through my head
it's just me and my piano, me and my piano
me and my piano, all night long
well Chanticleer’s a’crowin’
the eastern sky’s a glowin’
and the neighbor’s are a-goin'
off to work
oh, night time is a’ fleetin’
it’s the hour of breakfast eatin'
and this song I’ll keep repeatin'
till I go berserk, it’s been
me and my piano, me and my piano
me and my piano, all night long
