Sittin' all alone
Just listening to the breeze
Oh I can still remember that music
I never knew his name
Cause he never told me
And I never thought to ask him
But he was my friend
Even though we never spoke much
He talked to me with his music
And I knew that he was
As gentle as the breeze
Cause when he played he just made you feel good
Playin' his accordion
Under that tree
I remember everybody would go there
And all the little children
Sittin' all around him
Watching and listening to him play
Singing all the songs they knew
And if they didn't know, then
They'd still sing, but that's alright
You see he didn't mind
Cause he lived all alone
And he loved when we'd sit there and listen

I'm the accordion man
And I play for the children
As they listen a-while to the music
That I'm playin' for them
And if they like the song
Soon they all start to sing along
It's the smiles on their faces
That matters to me
They don't care if I play
In the same melodies
I just play what I can
I'm the accordion man
The years have gone by
And the children are all grown up
And they don't go there anymore
The place where he stayed
And the songs that he played
And the sound of the laughter are all gone now
But every now and then
I sit back and I close my eyes
And I can still hear the music
And how the children would laugh
And sing as he played
And I smile cause it still makes me feel good
