Last
Time a Great Song Came Along Copyright©2001,
Michael Sorbonne Robinson When's
the very last time you recall, in your mind, that
a great song came along... when
the tune and the lyrics were something much more than
a beat that was heavy and strong? When's
the very last time, that a song gave you wings, and
you soared over heaven and earth... when
notes flew you so high, brought a tear to your eye, like
the sight of your first child's birth? Chorus:
When's
the very last time you recall, in your mind, when
a melody lifted you far, from
the common and trite, to extremes of delight, like
a stroll on a moonbeam or star?
When's
the very last time you recall, in your mind, that
a rhapsody roused you to fire, and
the heat in your heart, hatched a tender-love start, that
took off, then flew higher and higher? When's
the very last time you recall, in your mind, that
a symphony swept you away, and
your doldrums erased by the delicate taste, of
the salt in the frothy surf spray. Chorus:
When's
the very last time you recall, in your mind, when
a melody lifted you far, from
the common and trite, to extremes of delight, like
a stroll on a moonbeam or star?
