There is a song only you can sing
Only you can mark the rhythm
Only you can set the key
Will its notes be obligato
So constrained and tightly bound
Or will they ring out con bravura
Letting bright boldness lead the way
Don’t worry about dissonance
We all hit sour notes now and then
And while there are times for sotto voce
Forte makes you more certain to be heard
Try not to sing your whole life as a solo
Harmonize in the chorus, spread your wings
And when you reach that final coda
Forget about reprisals and encores
Take your place in the cosmic concert
Your song added into the celestial melody
