Ivory Keys Lyrics

The cycle never ends

My friends stood me up again

So much for starting a band like I wanted

I felt like giving up

Just a musician down on her luck

Then at a solo gig, I saw you in the audience

And I know that it was more than fate we both were in that coffee shop that day

I love how you play the ivory keys

You're the harmony to my melody

When no one believed in me you were always rooting for my dreams

And after practice you'd stay late, so we could go to that café

And soon it's eleven o'clock

'Cause you and I just talk and talk

Went from bandmates to best friends

With you, I don't have to pretend to be somebody that I'm not

Used to have to do that a lot

I hope this never ends

You healed the wounds time couldn't mend with all our living room band practice sessions

Got a gig near LA

At the hotel, we stayed up late

At the pool until about 10:07

Now I know it was more than fate we both were in that coffee shop that day

I love how you play the ivory keys

You're the harmony to my melody

When no one believed in me you were always rooting for my dreams

And after practice you'd stay late, so we could go to that cafe

And soon it's eleven o'clock

'Cause you and I just talk and talk

Went from bandmates to best friends

With you, I don't have to pretend to be somebody that I'm not

Used to have to do that a lot

I hope we're always friends

I hope that I see you often

Even when we both live in different cities

I'll be in town for Christmas break

I promise I won't make you wait for too long

Soon enough you'll see me standing outside on your street

I love how you play the ivory keys

You're the harmony to my melody

When no one believed in me you were always rooting for my dreams

And after practice you'd stay late, so we could go to that café

And soon it's eleven o'clock

'Cause you and I just talk and talk

Went from bandmates to best friends

With you, I don't have to pretend to be somebody that I'm not

Used to have to do that a lot
