Sentimental Song from Piano 45 by Spottiswoode

There’s a boy on his 21st birthday
He’s going downtown with his friends
First he stands in his suit in the driveway
His mother and father both holding a hand

And perhaps I was pointing the camera
I’m not really sure of it now
But even today I remember
My brother so handsome, my parents so proud

And oh my brother and oh my mother
I love you I love you I love you
And oh my father we’ll take care of you
We love you we love you we love you

There’s girl by a train on the platform
She looks so incredibly young
She points up the track with a pack on her back
Her parents squint awkwardly into the sun

Then we’d wait every day for her postcard
To my parents, my elder brother and me
If ever one came it was always the same
My brother would read it to the whole family

And oh my brother and oh my mother
I love you I love you I love you
And oh my father we’ll take care of you
We love you we love you we love you
And oh my sister come home we miss you
We forgive you we forgive you we forgive you
We’re gonna live together on earth and in heaven
Forever and ever and ever
Forever and ever and ever
We’re gonna live together on earth and in heaven
Forever and ever and ever
