YOU ARE THE MUSIC - a song lyric

You are the music in my heart

And with each note I feel a part

Of some eternal symphony

Written just for you and me

 

You are the melody in my mind

And with its tune I always find

New meaning in this life I live

New ways to love, new ways to give

 

You are the song I've come to know

Wherever in this world I go

As sweet as any sung by birds

But they will never know the words

 

You are the music in my heart

With every note I feel a part

Of some eternal symphony

Written just for you and me

Brian - apropos my comment about emotion elsewhere,
this is an example of the latter at work! Glad you enjoyed
the words. Funny how some come easily while others take
an age to get right. I'm happy to say that this was in the
first category and once the first line came to mind, the rest
followed easily enough. Now I'm working on some "bridge"
lines for an audio recording. This is where the extra effort
comes in!! My admiration for lyricist Sammy Cahn is a
huge source of encouragement. He once observed that
he had put more words into Frank Sinatra's mouth than any
man living. Not a bad way to MAKE a living!!

Oh yes, I'll surely be quoting some of these lines (with full credit of course!) Curious to hear to audio you'd place with such lovely lyrics.

Thanks, JC, An appreciative response from any source is
always welcome. I am aware that women love to laugh,
so good luck to Hugh. He deserves his applause.
I'm now working on an audio for this lyric - with slight
additions - in the style of a "stage musical song", but still keeping it simple to stay in the mind...not always easy. ?

Your usual excellent standard, MC. When's the audio coming?
(Until Hugh popped up you seemed to be hitting the spot with the ladies).

Anya/TC/Kate G. and Jane B. - many thanks for the
comments. I have a short "bridge" in mind after the
first AB verses. Still working on it. ?
