Description
It Plays OnThe notes of a song in the mind of a child
Free as the wind as it crosses the skies
Sing for the joy of a life just beginning
To let loose the spirit that nestles inside
Play now the lyrics of learning and growing
Silly the words that are shaping your time
Lessons are learned in notes and in phrases
They will be with you the rest of your lives
Play now the marches and drums of rebellion
Cast from the visions of things you see true
Seek to run far from the walls of the elder
Defiant and proud are the notes that call you
Cry now the cadence of sorrow and heartbreak
Whisper the rhythm alone and apart
Then learn the truth of the feeling within you
And trade with another the ballad of hearts
Onward the symphony labor and building
Growing a measure that you call your own
Memory casts all of it's notes there before you
And life in it's living adds some of it's own
From student to teacher the product of time
The music is sung to the babe in your arms
A gift to the children is woven in rhyme
A promise of life and protection from harm
Softly the tune of the ages is fading
Soon will the notes of the ending be gone
Will this be the close of the song of the player
No says the voice of the children
It Plays On.
