Musical Fate

I heard your music playing, outside the door It took me to a place I haven’t been before I went to leave and followed the tune This beautiful sunny day, at high noon Then I was standing in the sunlight, caught by your smile I swear it could have carried me a mile I was talking to a stranger, strumming his guitar Our smiles flashing back and forth, never going far Chorus Suddenly, I had no-where to go, nothing to do But stand in a parking lot, talking to you That’s right, I had no-where to go, nothing to do It was musical fate, making plans, with a musician like you _______ Your eyes were filled with stars so bright I would’ve followed you into a moonless night Your voice was so familiar, but new So soothing in the warm air, as I listened to you Singing, moving, strumming your guitar While I stood watching on the way to my car Your eyes never left me, your smile never did fade It was that moment, this memory was made Chorus Suddenly I had no-where to go, nothing to do But stand in the parking lot, talking to you That’s right, I had no-where to go, nothing to do It was musical fate, making plans, with a musician like you Heidi Sands 9/11/23

What a beautiful moment in time, created while the music played. It was "musical fate"! Beautiful lyrics, for the perfect song. Enjoy the moment Heidi!

Your words make such beautiful music. I enjoyed listening to your words about a romantic encounter. Reminded me a bit of my hubby and I (except neither of us are musicians :-) ) Nicely done.

I write music too Jerry. I play piano. If I can make the time with things going on, I will try to put the music to these. I haven't been playing lately. But, I have put a few songs here in the past. Thank you very much. I hope you have a nice evening :)

This music man has her swept off her feet. Was it the voice, the eyes, or both? Nice lyrics Heidi
