Second Hand White Baby Grand(SMASH Cast Version)
My mother bought it secondhand from a silent movie star
- My mother bought it secondhand from a silent movie star
- It was out of tune but still I learned to play
- And with each note we both would smile forgetting who we are
- And all the pain would simply fly away
- Something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound
- Even if it doesn't have a place to live
- Oh the words were left unspoken when my Mama came around
- But that Secondhand White Baby Grand still had something beautiful to give
- Through missing keys and broken strings the music was our own
- Until the day we said our last goodbyes
- The baby grand was sent away
- A child all alone to pray somebody else would realize
- That something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound
- Even if it doesn't have a place to live
- Oh the words are still unspoken now that Mama's not around
- But that Secondhand White Baby Grand still has something beautiful to give
- For many years the music had to roam
- Until we found a way to find a home
- So now I wake up every day and see her standing there
- Just waiting for a partner to compose
- And I wish my mother still could hear that sound beyond compare
- I'll play her song till everybody knows
- That something secondhand and broken still can make a pretty sound
- Don't we all deserve a family room to live
- Oh the words can't stay unspoken until everyone has found
- That Secondhand White Baby Grand that still has something beautiful to give
- I still have something beautiful to give
