FOR THE LOVE OF PLAYING
SHEET MUSIC COLLECTION
The piano waits.
Silent, poised and ready.
Sit down, stay a while. The world turns regardless.
Start slow, naïve and unguided, like the steps of a child.
Sit down, stay a while. Devoid of fear or falter.
It’s already here, like a storm overhead.
Let the rains fall and let the sun shine.
Sit down, stay a while.
Learn the notes, play the music.
Play the music, play the music.
