The Faintest Song

The faintest song

that I ever heard

sailed into my day

and proceeded to play

my questions away

through echoes

 

So fine the tune

then lingered for a while

in a vacuum so still

that sound never will

endeavor to fill

the silence

 

And I played and played

and I played and played

all day long

to this faintest song

the love of which

I could not resist

no more

 

And I played and played

and I played and played

all night long

in the field of dream

the truth of which

I could not resist

no more

September 1974
