Unplayed Piano
Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan
Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan
Come and see me
Sing me to sleep
Come and free me
Hold me if I need to weep
Maybe it's not the season
Maybe it's not the year
Maybe there's no good reason
Why I'm locked up inside
Just cause they wanna hide me
The moon goes bright
The darker they make my night
*Unplayed pianos
Are often by a window
In a room where nobody else goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed piano
Still holds a tune
Lock on the lid
In a stale, stale room
Maybe it's not that easy
Or maybe it's not that hard
Maybe they could release me
Let the people decide
I've got nothing to hide
I've done nothing wrong
So why have I been here so long?
* *
Unplayed piano
Still holds a tune
Years pass by
In the changing of the moon

This song is Damien and Lisa together compose for Aung San Suu Kyi.
Hoping Myanmar's government to release Aung San Suu Kyi who had been put under house arrest for many years.
Aung San Suu Kyi is National League for Democracy of Burma's Party secretary who also won the general election in 1990.
But the results were nullified by the military government.
And she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991.
By a wonderful piano wasn't played and placed in a stale room to describe the situation of Aung San Suu Kyi.
Some minor errors, Ivan.

Ivan, your English is good, but still have some minor grammar errors. Mabye, use this summer to improve it would be a good idea.
Recommend you a good grammar book--
Understanding and using English grammar by Betty Schrampfer Azar. Should be able to find it in 敦煌書局 or 誠品.
