[Verse]
The weathered oak stands firm in the breeze
Its roots run deep beneath the seas
The melody drifts from fingers worn
A tale of time and lives torn
[Verse 2]
The keys are heavy
The notes are slow
From dusty strings
The echoes grow
A man's long journey through fading years
Told in whispers
Bathed in tears
[Chorus]
Oh
The keys remember what we forgot
Stories of struggle
Battles time fought
Each note a shadow of what used to be
Dancing chords
Setting memories free
[Verse 3]
Her song lingers in the minor sound
The creak of the pedal
The ghost profound
A thousand voices tied to each chord
Filling the silence we once ignored
[Bridge]
Grandmother's hands
They used to play
Spinning yarns in the twilight grey
Now it’s me
Though my touch is raw
Tracing a hymn of all I saw
[Chorus]
Oh
The keys remember what we forgot
Stories of struggle
Battles time fought
Each note a shadow of what used to be
Dancing chords
Setting memories free
