An Old Piano

Helena Lanzas 2006 (Nicaragua)

Lyric
Their song echoes through quiet rooms,
Filling you with a feeling of warmth, nostalgia, and long forgotten memories
The memories are sorrowful in a beautiful way
floating up to a space where all other noise is drowned out
A reminiscence of a sweet melody
Old, but not forgotten
They rest in your brain,
like the melody of an old piano
