Piano in the Dark / Brenda Russell

by Erwin


Piano in the dark is a beautiful melodic ballad which I especially love.
Brenda Russell sings her heart out in that song.
It's a blast from the past.

Piano in the dark was a single from her album Get Here, released in February 2, 1988. Backing vocals by Joe Esposito, Grammy-nominated for Best pop Duo. It was her only charting single on the Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at #6.






Here are the lyrics of the song:

When I find myself watching the time
I never think about all the funny things you said
I feel like its dead
Where is it leading me now?

I turn around in the still of the room
Knowing this is when I'm gonna make my move
Can't wait any longer
And I'm feeling stronger but oh

Just as I walk through the door
I can feel your emotion
It's pullin' me back
Back to love you

I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little
When he plays piano in the dark

He holds me close like a thief of the heart
He plays a melody
Born to tear me all apart
The silence is broken
And no words are spoken but oh

Just as I walk through the door
I can feel your emotion
It's pullin' me back
Back to love you

I know I'm caught up in the middle
I cry just a little
When I think of letting go
Oh no, gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little
When he plays piano in the dark

"Thank you for your lessons. I took piano lessons as a kid, and I've dabbled off and on for years. My music teacher taught me how to read music and hit all the notes, but I never felt like I was playing for real. I always felt like I was going through the motions, like a machine. Your lessons have changed that, so thanks."

Joshua White from U.S.A
