Lyrics
What you look like
Contemplating someone's appearance
Snow white and so on
Drawing a parallel to Snow White
Reminds me of what I
Stirring memories, uncertain
Can't quite put my finger upon
Unable to pinpoint a feeling
The key piano and otherwise
Mention of a key, both literal and metaphorical
Secret 'pon secret
Layers of undisclosed secrets
I promise to hide
Promising to keep these secrets hidden
I love you but I'm gonna keep quiet about it
Expressing love but choosing silence
I love you but I'm keeping my mouth shut about it
Reiteration of love with a commitment to silence
Walking back into the living room
Returning to a familiar space
Where I do no thing like sing
Engaging in activities that don't involve singing
Or play piano until
Engaging in musical activities only when alone
The cow comes home and when the phone rings
Waiting for an unlikely event
I do not dare answer
Avoiding potential communication
I love you but I'm gonna keep quiet about it
Reiterating love with a commitment to silence
I love you but I'm keeping my mouth shut about it
Renewing the commitment to keep quiet about love
Outside the window a shower scattered
Observing a shower outside the window
Drop afer drop of sound pitter-pattered
Describing the sound of raindrops
Pitter-pattered, pitter-pattered
Repetition of raindrop sounds
The wall is white and streaked and splattered
Depicting a damaged wall
The pipes are broken the leak oh, no matter to me
Acceptance of imperfections in the environment
Cause I prefer this distraction
Choosing distraction over fixing issues
When the piano calls me off key
Seeking refuge in playing the piano
I love you but I'm gonna keep quiet about it
Reaffirming love with continued silence
I love you but I'm keeping my mouth shut about it
Committing to keep love silent
