A Silenced Symphony By the Sea

A SILENCED SYMPHONY BY THE SEA I recall when we first sang that song And danced from twilight until the sun As for me we couldn’t have danced too long As I freely floated and you sensually spun You sang lead and I the backup harmony A symphony composed by only you and me The theme was a sonata sanctified by the sea And so I thrilled to my dancer’s decree “hold me closer and tighter my dear” Those were the lyrics I penned for you “let thy words draw me ever near” And thus the melody did that which it was meant to do When I scribed those words they seemed so real And “eternal” was a concept I suddenly understood But by the orchestration was I taught how to feel As destiny and perpetuity have done all they could Now due to you I can no longer sing that song Nor can I listen to it any more The rhythm’s off and the lyrics are wrong Since I wrote the words but you ruined the score © 2011.…free cee
