THERE IS A MELODY


THERE IS A MELODY

 

There is a melody of my hear I wish to sing.

A song of life that is like the Sun shine in the Spring.

 

How can I sing this song,

When there is no one to sing it with.

 

Out of the night,

The shadows speak,

Of love,

Of tenderness,

Of great feats of Cavalier.

 

The time of Romance not forgotten,

I roam with intent,

With plan,

I travel the hills,

The land.

 

Where could she be is the thought!

 

The Moon, 

The Stars,

The Earth before me,

I walk the path to find her.

 

The dream of hope does her bidding,

I hear a voice of song, 

From the kitchen.

 

Come in Sir,

She's all I ever dreamed of,

The Melody of my heart.
