1Alone in a small house outside of town lived a woman whose few possessions included an old upright piano6:06
2Its keys were worn and its wooden frame bore the markings of a lifetimes worth of being played being moved and being played some m2:08
3On it the woman composed beautiful haunting pieces and played them everyday2:38
4But it was music that only she heard as her children were all grown and her husband had passed on long ago2:08
5Each melody told a story of love but also of loneliness and of the unspoken language that only music can convey4:18
6Years went by and the women slowly grew older4:14
7One evening as she played she felt a stirring deep inside her2:02
8Slowly she laid her head down on the pianos dark wooden surface took a slow breath and breathed no more2:05
9She was discovered the next day and arrangements were made to remove her from the house to be buried2:40
10The old house was torn down and the piano was moved out into the garden exposing it to the elements2:18
11It sat on the land its keys silent its strings untouched there on the outside of town4:52
12And as the seasons came and went the once well tended garden transformed into a wild swampy wood3:54
13One night in the silence of the overgrown swamp when an unusually blue moon cast its gentle glow on the forgotten instrument somet3:17
14The piano devoid of human touch began to play itself its keys moving gracefully perfectly producing the hauntingly beautiful music5:36
15But there was no audience to hear the melancholia that echoed through the night so the piano played for the trees the frogs and th4:33
16The music was a lament a suite of longing and isolation that only the abandoned woodlands could fully understand2:49
17Night after night the old piano plays its sad and beautiful melodies1:50
18Weaving them into the fabric of the forgotten landscape1:16
19Becoming a part of it there in the heart of the abandoned wood4:54
