There I was driving along,
Quite happily going to a shop.
Music playing in the car
As always,
When this piece started,
Started playing.
I have heard it so many times,
I have played it,
I have sung it.
So what was different this time?
Because as I listened
Tears came to my eyes.
Why did it happen this time?
I was in a good place in my life,
All was going well.
I may have changed
And my loving emotions
Are more prevalent,
Music always affects me,
Sometimes with tears
But this piece I know so well.
So why did the tears come,
These tears of emotion,
Come this time.
