If I Could Play The Piano
Lyrics / Aku Yuu
Music / Kouichi Sakata
西田敏行 もしもピアノが弾けたなら ( SMEJ )
If I could play the piano
If I could play the piano
I make a song of all my mind
Going to tell you what is it
When rainy day, like in the rain
When windy day, like in the wind
When sunny day morning, like in the sunshine
But I have not piano
Also I have not good hands play for you
Always partly open my mind
Left with the words convey
Aa aa ah…
It's left
If I could play the piano
Put on a small light
Going play for you
Joy what loved person
Grief what can't convey of my heart
Passion what can't for blocking
But I have not piano
Have not dreaming with you
Always empty around my mind
Even going away my dream which I want to tell you
Aa aa ah…
It's go away
