The Greatest Band Ever

The Moons up high in the southern sky
The clouds have flown away
I'm sitting by the water's side
On a rock made of sand and clay
While sitting in my rocky chair 
Time began to slow down
The stars became a little brighter
And the river lost its sound 
A beauty I've never known before
Now before my eyes
Music I've never heard before 
They played to me that night
The river gave the rhythm 
While the trees sang the song
An owl was singing backup
The frogs were the beat 
That lead them all
The moon was the spotlight
That lit up their gigantic stage
And I had a front row seat
To the greatest band thats every played
When the song was done
After the lights went out
I truly realized 
What love for life was really about
