Contemplative But Happy Ballad

Verse
When a poem meets a melody

That’s where you’ll find a song

When you think you’ve heard

That tune before and realize you’re wrong

When those little hairs upon you’re neck

Stand up, but not for long

That’s a song that’s a song that’s a song

Chorus
That’s a song that’s a song it’s just waiting to be sung

Sing it low, sing it slow, sing the little bit you know

That’s a song, that’s a song, makes no difference how it’s sung

Let it sigh, let it cry, let it be a lullaby

Verse
When the melody goes way too high

And you can’t sing along

Co’s the singer’s doing fancy stuff

You think there’s something wrong

Then the poem brings the melody

Back down where it belongs

That’s a song that’s a song that’s a song

Chorus
That’s a song that’s a song it’s just waiting to be sung

Sing it low, sing it slow, sing the little bit you know

That’s a song that’s a song makes no difference how it’s sung

Let it sigh, let it cry, let it be a lullaby

Verse
When a feeling meets a memory

Reminded by the song

And the poem seems to say what

You’ve been thinking all along

If it’s simply saying I love you

It wont be very long

Coda
That’s a song, that’s a song,  

It's just waiting to be sung.

That's song, that's a song, that's a song. 
Fin.
