Life is a song

"I was sailing along, On Moonlight Bay. I could hear the voices singing. They seemed to say, You have stolen my heart, Now don’t go away. As they sang love's old, sweet song, On Monnlight Bay."     ~~Edward Madden~~

I was sailing along, 
On Soup Song Bay.
I could hear the voices singing. 
They seemed to say,
You have stolen my heart,
Now don’t go away.
As they sang love's old, sweet song,
On Soup Song Bay.
I could hear your voice singing.
It seemed to say,
For us the bell is ringing.
I must go away.,
This is life’s old, sweet song,
On Soup Song Bay.
You have broken my heart. 
Please don’t go away.
So sad to see you leaving,
From Soup song Bay.
Now I am sailing along. 
Old and grey,
Writing love songs on Soup Song Bay.
You have done me wrong.
Life is a song, now you went away.
As I sang life’s old, sweet song,
On Soup Song Bay.
