Coda

The songs play in my head

Over, and over, and over again

What’s the beat? Where’s the thread?

Over, and over, and over again.

A melody sweet with a rhythm of lead

Over, and over, and over again.

Another year twisting ’round ’till I’m dead

Over, and over, and over again

What’s with the choruses all worn out spreads?

Over, and over, and over again…

Fading from memory, losing it’s stead

Over, and over, and over again…

Hold tight to my hand and lean on my chest

Over, and over we breathe again…

One day the music will lie down and rest

Over, and over, and over again…

Lie in my arms, and I’ll play your tune

Slower, and slower, and slow again.

Until we fall asleep while remembering June

Surrendering softly to our gentle croon.
