Outright (original) - Molly Newman

My first YouTube piano song! I haven't studied piano since I was twelve years old...and the piano probably hasn't been tuned since about then. Regardless, here is a new song of mine. I've been listening to a lot of Ingrid Michaelson, which probably shows in this song. She's awesome.

This will be my last video for a long time, because I'm about to leave for a semester abroad in Stockholm! Incidentally, if you live anywhere near Sweden, and you like Harry Potter, you should come to Lumos 2010, where I will be performing as Roonil Wazlib. It's going to be a blast!

Lyrics:

Well, hello there, morning sun
Coming in through my blinds
It's hard getting out of my bed
Even harder getting him from my mind

Hey, hey, hey
What I'm trying to
Say, say, say...

I try to express in words and in song
The way he's made me feel all along
Or the way that it's changed and I feel something new
It's so hard to say outright...

Well, hello there, evening moon
Tough to see through the rain
It's hard getting out of his car
Even harder getting him from my brain

Hey, hey, hey
What I'm trying to
Say, say, say...

I try to express in words and in song
The way he's made me feel all along
Or the way that it's changed and I feel something new
It's so hard to say outright...

Hey, hey, hey
What I'm trying to
Say, say, say...

Hey, hey, hey
What I'm trying to
Say, say, say...

Let's take that road trip 'round the States and
Make the kind of memories you tell your kids about

Hey, hey, hey
What I'm trying to
Say, say, say is

Hey, hey, hey
What I'm trying to
Say, say, say is

I try to express in words and in song
The way he's made me feel all along
Or the way that it's changed and I feel something new
It's so hard to say outright...

It's so hard to say outright...
It's so hard to say outright that...
It's so hard to say outright.
