Did you catch a song upon the wind Or carve it from the stone Did you hear it coming o'er the mountain Or read its scripted bones Did you feel from the forgotten place The space between your toes Did you taste the color of its melody Dance rhythm's prose Did it come to you like lightning would Or slowly through the veil Did its sonnet climb right out your throat From the darkness it escaped Did it take you on a journey through The faces of your past Did the memories last long enough To turn phrase from their grasp Did it chase you in your dream time Cast its burden on your chest Did it wake you 'neath the moon light Did it even let you rest Did it startle you by telling truth You sworn silence til your death Did you let it have its way with you This music on your breath How did the song come How did the song come How did the song come How did the song come How did the song come How did the song come How did the song How did the song How did the song
