Lyrics

Late at night  
When it's dark and cold  
I reach out  
For someone to hold  
When I'm blue  
When I'm lonely  
She comes through  
She's the only one who can  
My baby grand  
Is all I need  
  
In my time  
I've wandered everywhere  
Around this world  
She would always be there  
Any day  
Any hour  
All it takes  
Is the power in my hands  
This baby grand's  
Been good to me  
  
I've had friends  
But they slipped away  
I've had fame  
But it doesn't stay  
I've made fortunes  
Spent them fast enough  
As for woman  
They don't last with just one man  
But baby grand  
Will stand by me  
  
They say that no one's gonna play this on the radio  
They said the melancholy blues were dead and gone  
But only songs like these  
Played in minor keys  
Keep those memories holding on  
  
I've come far  
From the life I've strayed in  
I've got scars  
From those dives I've played in  
Now I'm home  
And I'm weary  
In my bones  
Every dreary one night stand  
But baby grand  
Came home with me  
  
Ever since this gig began  
My baby grand's  
Been good to me
