Music Piercing the Soul

A riff from and old song makes it's way into your heart Emotions you had forgotten well up inside you The theme conjures up memories of friends, lovers and wine - intoxicated evenings The moon overhead is the same old moon but you're not quite yourself lost in nostalgic reveries you move into a waking dream ready to touch the fire gingerly Eros and memory combine to form images in the core of your being the tones bring you back to a time when life opened it's doors for you Things have changed since then but the riff opens up your mind Music can paint the past and the future Let melody be your guide The world holds a place for you Let the notes bring you there where you should be At the junction of the past, present and future where the real and the unreal meet Casting their spells in the face of eternity
