"Piano Man" Steve Lungrin

Lyrics

Every now and then
I think about when I was young
A naïve boy of thirteen years
With a new taste on his tongue
Girls were just a waste of time
Or so I’d always felt
Til I fell in love with one despite myself

She was the older sister
Of my best friend at the time
Pushing seventeen years old
And man she blew my mind
Her eyes could light a dark room up,
Her hair a soft gold brown
And a smile in which
I wanted to be drowned

Her name was Mia Dawn,
She had a magic wand
The first girl in the world
To make me think I was in love
And Mia Dawn, I could go on and on
She was the girl
Who flooded all my dreams,
My Mia Dawn

Every time she said hello
My knees would both go weak
I’d try to nod and smile
Cuz I’d forgotten how to speak
Nothing in the world
Had ever made me feel that way
And it’s all that I could think of every day

When I would go to sleep at night
I’d dream about the day
That I’d be old enough
That she could see me the same way
And then I’d have the chance
To show her who I really am
More than just her baby brother’s friend

Her name was Mia Dawn,
She had a magic wand
The first girl in the world
To make me think I was in love
And Mia Dawn, I could go on and on
She was the girl
Who flooded all my dreams,
My Mia Dawn

It wasn’t very long
Before she left to see the world
I was growing up
And started dating other girls
And though I haven’t seen her now
In such a long, long time
I’d be lying if I said
She never crossed my mind

It’s been more than 20 years,
And I have traveled far
But Mia Dawn still holds
A special place inside my heart
The memories that I have
Are just as precious still today
And I know that it will always be that way

Her name was Mia Dawn,
She had a magic wand
The first girl in the world
To make me think I was in love
And Mia Dawn will always be the one
Who held the key to my heart
In her palm
The girl I wanted more
Than anyone
She flooded all my dreams
When I was young
My Mia Dawn
