If I had a piano with one key,
Would you hear my melody?
If the world was shaded with one color only,
Would you sit with me and still feel lonely?
If the books read by children no longer existed,
Would you recite the stories that I once resisted,
Or would you not remember on your own,
the memories delicately etched in stone?
Where the sun sets and the moon crashes into the ocean,
Would you travel with me to see the place I once found emotion?
Or what about the empty skies,
Would you paint them with beautiful lies?
If the butterfly could sing a melodic tune,
Would you live a thousand years just to see her beautiful cocoon,  
Or would you lie wasting time, compensating life’s harmonic design? Come, Come, and dance away the melodic memories
That sweep through the valleys of unforgotten centuries.
Don’t hold back of what you have to fear,
Because when you find yourself,
I will be there.
Waiting, Sitting, Lying, and rejoicing for your journey is near,
And when you lay your heart at rest,
These melodic memories will become so clear.
