As music floats by

Playing my harmonica softly into the night Watch a few birds take flight The sound fills the air Some animals seem not to care Guess that is fair Can see the music as it floats by To disappear in the darkness of the sky Shimmering Glimmering Visual echoes of sound To gravity they are not bound Beautiful, I have found Like a wave flowing past I wish it would last Different colors for all the many notes Across the air it gently floats Off into the night Such a beautiful sight My rainbow of light Lost to the world around My heartbeat, the only other sound I enter a world of my own Forget all that life has shown All that I see I feel so free The energy it does take Is so hard to make I know I can stay Only as long as I play Trembling shaking Reality starts waking The music starts to die Softly I cry The show fades away I find night has turned to day I lay myself down to sleep But the memories make weep But they are mine to keep
