[Verse 1]
Waking up before the sun
December 1991
I was scared before you were born
Was in a band on my own
And now I'm waking up before the sun
I'm saving up, I'm working hard
I want to buy a house with a backyard
And you were hardly 4 years old
And you played this little Casio
I'm saving up, I'm working hard
[Chorus]
What's mine is yours now
Your dreams are my dreams
I want to open doors now
To things that I've never seen
So I sold my drumset
I'm moving on now
To buy you this piano
To fill the house with beautiful sounds
A little more
I want to give you a little more
Than I have
[Verse 2]
You played that thing every day
Billy Joel to John Coltranе
And when the world stops making sensе
You can come on back to this old friend
Play that thing every day
[Chorus]
What's mine is yours now
Your dreams are my dreams
I want to open doors now
To things that I've never seen
So I sold my drumset
I'm moving own now
To buy you this piano
To fill the house with beautiful sounds
A little more
I want to give you a little more
Than I have
