Power Of Song
The very first song was the beating heart
Beating for me, beating for you.
And it would be with the melody
Rock a by baby to sleep
Birds on the window sill serenade
singing their song then they fly away
Like the little boy or little girl
They bring their own songs into this world
(chorus) The power of song
Takes everything that's wrong away
The power of song
When it comes from the heart
Beating for the perfect day
The rhythm in your soul
From folk to rock and roll
You're Free of every worry
You feel every word take you away
And feel the love all ways
In The power of song
I was a kid hanging with my boys
Full blast, amped up to our favorite band
Giving the finger to the man
Screaming Skid Rows “we are the youth gone wild”
We could change the world with just attitude
So young, having fun with everything to prove
So move on over old man
Or keep up if you can
Cuz we're gonna change this world
With my guitar and my friends
Turn it up to ten
(chorus)
There ain't nothing like the first love
It hits you between the eyes
When you'd rather slow dance with your loved one
Than hang out with the guys
Then the time came to move on
We came to the end of the road
With Boyz 2 Men on we held on
Like we would never let go
30 years later through the radio
Played our favorite song
My heart skipped a beat like it did back then
Like no time had gone.
(chorus)
Uncle Henry used to light up the room
With his love for God and he could carry a tune
We would sing and dance the night away
With Cab Callaway
La LA LA LA LA
Now he's slumped in his chair.. unaware
His mind no longer the same
empty stare, the spark not there
He barely knows his name
We put the headphones on him and pushed play
His eyes lit up a new day
He sang song of love
He sang songs of hope
He sang like he was young again
LA LA LA LA LA
He looked into my eyes
And told me son
Sing your songs for everyone cause
(chorus)
The very last song was the beating heart
Beating for me, beating for you.
