How many times have you seen it?
Grown men and women,
Little boys and girls
Have heard the songs
Maria and the children sang
In a story set in a far away land
In a time before I was born
Yet we can watch it over and over again
Here at home
When I hear the tunes
that Maria sings lilke DO RE MI
The notes from the very beginning
Are not just music
From a hill on a far away land
From a period of Time long gone
When the music is timeless
We can close our eyes
And we can hear
The sound of beautiful music
Though sang by a voice of a Woman in her youth
It is timeless
It is ageless
Music can change a frown into a smile
Like the way Maria did it
In the Sound of Music
If and only we choose to hear it.
What music when you were little
made you rise up and stand
bounce and sway
clap your hands
stomp your feet
It made you dance
