The Old Song

When it rings
An old song
In a room
Still the heart
Fills it with emotion

Between guitar strings
The song sounds
It inspires me
I remember your voice

Between the lines I express my love
Listening to the song
It elevates me, it thrills me
I think I hear your voice

Between blankets
The song sounds
I close my eyes
I open my mind
I open the trunk of emotion

I dance, maybe I cry
It is nothing
They are just memories
In the room

A heart
That woke up
With the old song
Dreaming awake
Closing the cracks

I hear the song
I know i’m awake
I just dreamed
My soul quiets down

The old song plays
Between guitar strings
A voice is heard
The cracks close
I don’t sleep, I’m awake

Oh heart close the cracks
Calm my soul
I hear the voice
That a memory stayed
Guitar strings
Encourage the singer
And he expresses himself

Every feeling
Every emotion
They will stay when closing the cracks
In the heart!
Listening to the old song
In my room
