D'bush - Musical Instrument Lyrics

She's a candle in the window
She's a blanket on the bed
Sometimes she's a teardrop
Sometimes she's an hourglass

She's a musical instrument
Sometimes she smiles and sometimes she's sad

She's a musical instrument
You can play her good or you can play her bad

But you have to play her
To free the music that she has

You know she showed me around her mountain
You know she told me her heart was poundin'
She needs an ocean, and she was hopin', I 'd be the sea

I'm just a boat upon the ocean
I'm just a ship that's drifted free
Usually I'm a mystery
Like a book that no one reads

I'm a musical instrument
I play music by the sea
I'm a musical instrument
Sometimes I smile and sometimes I'm sad

I'm a musical instrument
You can play me good or you can play me bad

But you have to play me
To free the music that I have
