Hmm. No, I don't, I don't

have a piano at home.

I can't get one in Ireland;

it's so much money.

I can't afford it.

Yeah, it's expensive

all right.

I play in a

piano shop.

This man lets me play-

one hour per day

at lunch.

Somewhere around here?

You want to

hear me play?

- Yeah.

- Now?

Yeah.

Okay.

(knocking)

Can we come in?

(buzzer)

This is the man

I was telling you about.

He's a real gentleman.

Hi.

Okay for me

to play today?

Yeah, that's fine.

Thanks.

Not the baby Yamaha

though. She's sold.

- Okie-dokie.

- Mm-hmm.

Now, which one today?

(classical)

That kind of thing.

(exhales)

It's amazing.

Did you write that?

No, no, Mendelssohn did.

It's good.

It's good, yes.

Play me another

of your songs.

No.

Please.

Not here.

Why? Here, Billy

doesn't mind.

- You think it would be all right?

- Yes.

Okay.

Let's put that there, yeah?

Mm-hmm.

This is in C, yeah?

Yeah, okay,

I can see that.

Okay.

So, it goes, um...

Da... It goes,

# Da-da-da-da #

# Da-da-da-da,

da-da-da-da-da #

Yeah? And then there's

a bit in there-

Can you do that?

# Da-da-da-da-da... #

Brilliant.

And then there's another

part that goes, uh...

# Ba-ba-pa-pa-pa #

# Ba-ba-pa-pa-pa #

# Ba-ba-pa-pa-pa #

Yeah? And then the

chorus, let's see.

- You have those two bits?

- Mm-hmm.

And the chorus goes...

# Da-da-da-da-da

# Pa-pa-pa-pa, pa-pa-pa #

# Ba-ba... da-da. #

That's it. Perfect. Brilliant.

So, do you want

to give it a spin?

- Yes, try it.

- Okay.

Two, three,

four.

# I don't know you,

but I want you #

# All the more for that #

# And words fall through me

and always fool me #

# And I can't react #

We change here.

# And games that never amount

to more than they're meant #

# Will play themselves out #

Hold it.

And the chorus.

# Take this sinking boat

and point it home #

# We've still got time #

# Raise your hopeful voice #

# You had the choice #

# You've made it now #

# Falling slowly,

eyes that know me #

# And I can't go back #

# Moods that take me

and erase me #

# And I'm painted black#

# Well, you have suffered enough

and warred with yourself #

# It's time that you won #

# Take this sinking boat

# We've still got time #

# Raise your hopeful voice #

# Yeah #

# Take this sinking boat

and point it home #

# We've still got time #

# Raise your hopeful voice #

# You had the choice,

you've made it now #

# Falling slowly,
