A Melody can save a LIFE

He stumbled out of his car

And into the bar

After he had been driving all night

He was grateful to see the bar light

Cause he hadn’t any hope or anywhere to go that night

So he walked to the barman

And asked him for a tonic and gin

And then sat at the bar

Trying to drown the sorrow within

The bar was empty, except for a piano man

Who was tickling the ivories by himself

So he walked towards the piano man  while nursing his tonic and gin

He stared at him for while and then said these words to him

He said sing me a song oh you piano man

Sing me a melody tonight

I am old, cold and no where to go

And maybe your melody will give me a reason to fight

My life’s bubble been burst

But I thirst for love and it hurts

I feel all alone and lonely in my life 

So I  want to put an end to this strife

So sing me melody and help to save a life

Now the piano man looked at him from his perch 

And gave him a warm smile

He nodded his way and continued to play 

A melody that would save his life 

He sang sir if I could be so bold 

But you don’t look so old 

And i see no reasons to give up on life

We have all to face strife

It just all part of life

So take deep breath and don’t regret You’re doing quite nice

Clear your mind of the doubts that’s blocking you

Clear your mind of all negative thoughts

Spend time with your family and friends

Don’t  hold your pain within 

And talk when it’s begins to overwhelm 

So raise your glass 

And toast life till it last

And I’ll sing you a melody for life 

So he raised his glass

Toasted the life he had tasked

And drank his tonic and gin

As the the piano man played him a melody 

He tipped his hat to him

He paid for his drink

And left with a grin

With renewed faith within

As he stepped out of the bar that night

Humming the melody that saved his life!
