The music on the radio has washed today away,
\nThe row at work, her mother on the phone;
\nDisasters can’t affect her when a saxophone’s at play,
\nFor just a while she’s in the World alone.
\nHer heart will beat it’s rhythms and she dreams a melody
\nOf drinking golden sunsets by a softly lapping sea.<\/p>\n
The traffic in the morning was a nightmare on the move,
\nThe boss forbore to mention she was late,
\nBut now her day’s forgotten as her body hits the groove,
\nThat letter from the bank will have to wait.
\nThe notes are climbing higher and her spirit’s flying free
\nTo sit in golden sunsets by a softly lapping sea.<\/p>\n
Her lunch stayed in the kitchen as she bolted from the door,
\nThe drinks machine gave lukewarm cups of mush,
\nBut now she’s floating gently several inches from the floor
\nNot recompiling figures in a rush.
\nA love song’s sure to help her bring back equanimity
\nAnd hopes of golden sunsets by a softly lapping sea.<\/p>\n
And when the track has ended she will see her life again
\nBut softer round the edges for a while.
\nThe echoes of the music keep her settled in the when
\nTomorrow was a good excuse to smile.
\nIt’s not about the heartache if inside your mind you’re free
\nTo welcome golden sunsets by a softly lapping sea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
