The tune of the heart song

Is soft and sweet

Most of the time yet

It can be sad and lonesome

With tearful strains

Happy and hopeful

From day to day or

Stirring long ago memories

That bring tears of regret

Searching the cords for

The just right note

To soothe the pains of loss

And emptiness away

Having to make hard choices can

Burden down the melody

And make it not so soothing

To hear once more

Life picks the rhythm and carries

The beat from another time

We must listen closely if we want

To hear the message

For in the heart song

Only love can read the notes

Played for the special someone

That wrote the words in the first place

And sing within the soul

And love will listen.
