LYRICS:
It starts with one
All I know
Its so unreal
Watch you go
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesnt even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesnt even matter
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself of a time when I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mockin me
Actin like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
Im surprised it got so far
Things arent the way they were before
You wouldnt even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me in the end
You kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory of a time when I
One thing, I dont know why
It doesnt even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme to explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
Its so unreal
You didnt look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin to hold on, they didnt even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside
BROOKLYN DUO BIO:
Founded in 2014, Brooklyn Duo has quickly established itself as one of today’s most successful classical crossover ensembles. Through its creative arrangements and live video performances, the piano and cello duo has garnered a huge following, with over 1.2 million YouTube subscribers and over 150 million streams annually on platforms such as Spotify and Pandora Radio. Their music has been used in numerous television shows, including Greys Anatomy, Pretty Little Liars, Zoeys Extraordinary Playlist, Americas Got Talent, and most recently during the 2020 Democratic National Convention.
Members Marnie and Patrick Laird met while students at the same chamber music festival and were married in 2012. Both worked as professional musicians after graduating from the Eastman and Juilliard schools of music, respectively; Patrick as a founding member of popular cello rock band, Break of Reality, and Marnie as principal pianist of the New World Symphony. In 2014, on a whim, the couple recorded two covers and released them on YouTube. They were thrilled when Shakira herself took notice of their cover and tweeted about it. The boost from that exposure and the positive response they were getting on YouTube encouraged them to continue creating videos.
Today, Marnie and Patrick have released over 100 videos on their Brooklyn Duo YouTube channel and 10 albums of covers, spanning artists from The Beatles to Metallica to Ariana Grande. They also have a second YouTube channel, Brooklyn Classical, which aims to introduce classical music to a larger audience through high quality, live video performances.
Popular classical music stations Classic FM and WQXR regularly share Brooklyn Duo’s music on their social media pages, with Classic FM calling the duo “masters of the artfully planned pop cover.”

SPECIAL THANKS to Jacks Barn (www.jacksbarn.com) and Darren Anthony for letting us shoot in their beautiful rustic wedding venue! And a very special thanks to Paul Jacobson from Avatar Productions, Pierre Rueda, and production assistants Dylan and Remy for their video expertise.
Hi guys! Sorry for the long wait since our last video. As you can tell, Im super pregnant (we were lucky to get this video finished without me going into labor!) but we really wanted to film something for you before the baby came. Ave Maria is another piece we perform a lot at weddings, and just like Pachelbels Canon it works really beautifully on cello and piano. As always, if youd like to play this one yourself, our arrangement is available from Musicnotes.com (https://bit.ly/3bMSzpY). Its also up on Spotify so you can add it to your wedding playlists! 😊
