A SONG FOR EVERY DAY

As I was walking
I heard a soft voice
It was comforting and strong
I couldn't see her
I couldn't touch her
She said "I am your muse of song"
I sat and listened
The tunes were flowing
Words came into me like air
I heard her breathing
And felt her swaying
I heard sweet music everywhere
She said, "Write a song for every day
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
A song for every day
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
Every dream and every life"
My hands were shaking
I had the power
To lift hearts and change the world
I am not worthy
I am not gifted
I stand broken before you girl
She sang a rainbow
She sang an ocean
She sang bright hymns to the stars
She said "You're honest
And you are kindly
You are my minstrel, yes you are"
And so I write a song for every day
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
I sing a song for every day
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
Every dream and every life
As I grow older
I can't believe it
She seems from another time
I do not need her
I do not call her
I have left that girl behind
I sing a mountain
I sing a valley
I sing ballads to the moon
But she is watching
And she is helping
She makes sure I stay in tune
And that I write a song for everyone
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
And that I write a song for everyone
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
Every dream and every life
My time draws nearer
My mind is foggy
I've but time for one more song
I must say "thank you"
I must say "bless you"
You made me feel that I belong
With a song for every day
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
With a song for every day
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
Every dream and every life
With a song for every day
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
With a song for every day
A song for every night
A song for every feeling
Every dream and every life
