Let the music play

“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” – Plato

Back in the day

I was a young’un then

You’d know the sort

Being born back when

Youth seems too short

Why grow up so fast

Yearning and learning

My fate not yet cast

Yet, ideas are churning

I listened to music

I was a girlie girl

Loved dolls and things

A head full of curls

I was a tomboy too 

Loved bikes and things

I listened to music

Loved trees and things

Ha, Ha, you can’t get me

My fort-branches and leaves 

Yeah, this is still me

I listened to music

Loved music and things

My transistor radio

Discovered rock and roll

Times that fed my soul

I listened to music

Loved music and things

Discovered rock and roll

Stereos, boys, and cars

Times that fed my soul

I listened to music

Loved music and things

Discovered rock and roll

Concerts, men, and cars

Times that fed my soul

Hairstyles change

I listened to music

Love music and things

Discovered rock and roll

Golden years, family, and travel

The world needs music

Tis time to heal the soul

Listen to the music

You can’t go wrong
