That Old, Rusty Piano
“All my life I’ve lived in fear of living
Because his haunting melody followed me
Everywhere I went I kept on hearing
His deep, doomed voice singing and his long slender fingers
Coaxing a tune out of his old, rusty piano
His dark, tragically handsome face
Raised a fire above fires, an inferno
Deep in the deepest parts of my heart
I found that I wanted only him
And no, I didn’t want just a part
His beautiful voice and old, rusty piano
Brought to my knees, drew me to my fate
This man whom I adored, who broke me with our melancholy love
Is now the one I hate.”
—Miss Jeannette Montgomery

That Old, Rusty Piano

“All my life I’ve lived in fear of living

Because his haunting melody followed me

Everywhere I went I kept on hearing

His deep, doomed voice singing and his long slender fingers

Coaxing a tune out of his old, rusty piano

His dark, tragically handsome face

Raised a fire above fires, an inferno

Deep in the deepest parts of my heart

I found that I wanted only him

And no, I didn’t want just a part

His beautiful voice and old, rusty piano

Brought to my knees, drew me to my fate

This man whom I adored, who broke me with our melancholy love

Is now the one I hate.”
