When I was a young child,

I remember having these moments,

there was clarity,

a song could bring me into a different world,

simply the words,

I do remember now,

I really could believe, I did know love,

I felt the harmony of cool,

I was ok,

I used to smile back then,

I didn’t even have to wonder about how the rest of the day might turn out.

I would sing a song, dance a step, I might even call you,

and then when the songs ended, well i always had a choice,

even then.
