The Gift of Song lyrics

Songs to make you free

And songs that take you to another time

Forgotten reasons that are made of rhyme

For you and me

The songs of life

That somehow make us free

And songs to fill the heart

Like quiet candles on a winter's night

They touch the spaces between you and I

And I will sing

The songs of love

That speak to you and me

Then wake the sleeping child

And let me sing to you of other times

And let me make your dreams as sweet as mine

And I will bring

The gift of song

That only makes us free
