Ever within my mind,
Like an angel of songs
Living in my world,
Always bringing cheer.
Forging tunes of wonder
Into the world of jazz,
Taking music to a different place,
Zooming all around my life,
Gathering wonder for all,
Everlasting sounds
Raising me to a better place
Along my road of life,
Living in my world
Down to its ending.
