If life were a song
A crescendo would start
From the moment we’re born
The first beat of our heart

Moments of rest
After days filled with fun
Small pauses in-between
For the setting of the sun

Trebles for the highs
Those moments that will last
Basses for the low
Those times that are past

Half notes for lasting times
Repeats for Déjà Vu’s
Staccatos for those times
I had spent with you

Then as we get closer
Decrescendo will set in
Marking this lifetime
As one that’s reached its end

If life were a song
A splendid one it’d be
For no other song
Could captivate “me”
