Her body was acoustic Her skin a melody My mind hung on every note As she sung her life to me Her passion was a crescendo Although her tone was soft With a cadence of bounding horses She threw my rhythm off I felt all of my heart strings Pop, break and go out of tune Her voice cracked - All I heard was feedback As she measured me up from across the room I walked to her in 3/4 time I struck up a chord - she told me a rhyme She was well versed in French poetry A deep bodied bass with fine copper strings I was her rosin I was her trill Together we sang We're singing still Her body acoustic Her skin a melody Her mind on different wavelengths She's the song I sing

The Song I Sing
Her body was acoustic Her skin a melody My mind hung on every note As she sung her life to me Her passion was a crescendo Although her tone was soft With a cadence of bounding horses She threw my rhythm off I felt all of my heart strings Pop, break and go out of tune Her voice cracked - All I heard was feedback As she measured me up from across the room I walked to her in 3/4 time I struck up a chord - she told me a rhyme She was well versed in French poetry A deep bodied bass with fine copper strings I was her rosin I was her trill Together we sang We're singing still Her body acoustic Her skin a melody Her mind on different wavelengths She's the song I sing
