The Performance A blaze of sight and sound pierce my heart and mind Ears buzz, eyes dazzle, blood courses through my veins The wonder of life, the joy of humanity, the pain of sorrow and longing Love extolled, heartache explored, betrayal slayed Your music transfixes me Need I say more? Really, how could I? Not even Shakespeare – on his best day – could portray the magic you arrange You create like gods for parched and famished fans You sing, you play, you move You sing … You play … You move … You move me You move us You move the old man next to me You move the young girls to my side Tears, smiles, hands thrust toward the sky We dance, we sing, we celebrate Tonight, no care in the world Your performance, the performance, takes us away Far, far away to a realm undefined What do you know that I do not? How did you learn to transport my soul? It’s not just words, it’s not just notes, it’s not just moves It is more It is something altogether supernatural A blaze of sight and sound pierce my heart and mind Ears buzz, eyes dazzle, blood courses through my veins The wonder of life, the joy of humanity, the pain of sorrow and longing Love extolled, heartache explored, betrayal slayed Your music transfixes me
