Music

We heard the music once before when we were small and bright
We heard the music playing in the soft-pale morning light
We heard the music playing but we were too small to dance
We heard the music once before but never had a chance

We heard the music once before when we were young and strong
We heard the music playing as the afternoon drew on
We heard the music playing but we were too shy to dance
We heard the music once before but never took the chance

We heard the music once before when we were grown and tall
We heard the music playing as the sun began to fall
We heard the music playing but we had no time to dance
We heard the music once before but never gave a chance

And though the years have passed us and we have grown old and wise
Sometimes I hear the music when the stars light up the skies
We heard the music all before but this is our last chance
And so I ask the question now, would you like to dance?
