So I finally meet your daughter
What a wonderful surprise
She has that same self-effacing humour
And your eyes

So I finally meet your daughter
What a pleasure to hear her play
All the old songs
In a new style

Somewhere in the grey mists of time
I hear melodies played on a Steinway Grand

So who's the doll in the new dress
In the rubber and PVC blue dress
Haven't we seen that face somewhere before
Is it mister, is it sister
I hear someone got up there and kissed her
Just an ordinary Dartington Day
And nothing more

And all that she needs is the music to read
And a Steinway Grand

So I finally meet your daughter
What a gift to meet mother and daughter
What a pleasure to finally hear your daughter play

And somewhere
In the grey mists of time
I hear melodies played on a
Steinway Grand

And I'd just like to say
In my funny old way

Thank you, Mrs Frankenburg
Thank you, Mrs Frankenburg
I remember the days where we laughed and we sang
And we couldn't have stopped if we tried
We never tried
We could have sung until we died

Thank you, Mrs Frankenburg
Thank you, Mrs Frankenburg
Three of us playing pianos together
A couple of Steinways and an old song everybody knew
And I play this song now just for you

Thank you, Mrs Frankenburg
Thank you, Mrs Frankenburg
