OUR WORLD OF MUSIC

 

 (Brief instrumental intro)

 

With music ever playing

Through our time upon this Earth

No doubt we would have listened

Most probably since birth

As Mothers they employ it

While still within their keep

To sooth us in the cradle

With a lullaby to sleep.

 

 (Brief instrumental interlude)

 

Background music playing

As we employ the time of day

Helping to relax us

At work or when at play

And in a time of sorrow

It can fill that empty hole

To ease away the heartache

And sooth a troubled soul.

 

 (Brief instrumental interlude)

 

Within our world of music

There lies a massive store

While all the while creating

Yet one more music score

So very many genres

That comprise pop music themes

And some are so familiar

We can sing them in our dreams.

(Brief instrumental interlude)

As the years slip by us

We are gradually more inclined

To seek the great composers

And music more refined

To listen to a symphony

In some historic music hall

Undoubtedly for some folk

The most memorable of all.

 

To listen to the old songs

That recount nostalgic times

Regaling all the grandkids

With much nursery rhymes

Then in life’s final journey

Saint Peter knocking at our door

There will always be just time for

One final grand encore.

 

 (Brief instrumental outro)
