I learned to care Was always there I grew as she diminished The road was tough She said “enough” And now that time has finished -- I cannot go da capo Or even primo tempo
Yet on I go A one man show Now going rather lento -- When I am flat I need to chat Some days just feeling ‘so so’
It’s better when with screen or pen I’m writing furioso -- With good intent I’ll reinvent myself; scale a new height
I’ll write, I’ll sing To hope I’ll cling That all will turn out right --
Musical terms a capella - without accompaniment diminished - reducing interval between two notes da capo - back to the beginning primo tempo - continue at original speed lento - slowly flat - out of tune furioso - in a wild or furious manner scale - a consecutive series of notes
