Lyrics

I will continue to play...
Copyright© 2011 by Nadia Cripps (lyrics) and 
Roel van Veldt (music, vocals, piano, demo).

What can I sing about?
Hard to start, then come out
With something happy, something good,
I so often wish I could...

I'm not in a good mood,
Because life's so unfair
May be you think I'm being rude,
though you see, I don't swear

I know no one can answer my frustration
So I express it myself thanks to music notation

I wish though there was a way,
To heal through the music,
If only there was a way...

Why do we think it's okay,
To have our good luck only halfway?
Why do we need in our lives seasons of rain,
Why should sunshine come after the pain?

I know no one can answer my frustration
So I express it myself thanks to music notation

I wish though there was a way,
To heal through the music
And if there is only one way,
I will continue to play...
