The Song Is You
Melodic Echoes of Love: Unveiling the Heartfelt Symphony in Oscar Peterson's 'The Song Is You'
Lyrics
I hear music when I look at you,
I perceive a musical sensation when I gaze at you,
A beautiful theme of every
A delightful melody representing every
Dream I ever knew.
Dream I have ever experienced.
Down deep in my heart I hear it play.
Deep within my heart, I can hear this music playing.
I feel it start, then melt away.
I sense it commencing, then gradually fading away.
I hear music when I touch your hand,
I perceive music when I make contact with your hand,
A beautiful melody
A beautiful tune originating from a magical place.
From some enchanted land.
Deep within my heart, I can hear it expressing,
Down deep in my heart, I hear it say,
Is this the day?
Is this the day?
I alone have heard this lovely strain,
I, alone, have experienced this beautiful melody,
I alone have heard this glad refrain:
I, alone, have encountered this joyful repetition:
Must it be forever inside of me,
Must it remain eternally within me,
Why can't I let it go,
Why can't I release it,
Why can't I let you know,
Why can't I make you aware,
Why can't I let you know the song
Why can't I reveal to you the song
My heart would sing?
That my heart wishes to sing?
That beautiful rhapsody
That delightful masterpiece
Of love and youth and spring,
Of love, youth, and spring,
The music is sweet,
The music is enchanting,
The words are true
The words are sincere
The song is you.
The song is a representation of you.
