Duke Ellington's Sound of Love

I was young and carefree
Not a song had found my soul
Lost in blues, jazz, and ragtime
No sound had got to my mood
I was searching for my melody
Love blues that gets me wooed

All alone
Sad clown with his circus closed down
Lost on my merry-go-round came a melody
In my heart so yearning -

Taught me to hear music out of love
From the soul
For this life we all live infinite
With the lover and beloved
As one Ellington sound of love

*Instrumental Solo

All alone
Sad clown with his circus closed down
Lost on my merry-go-round came a melody
In my heart so yearning -

Taught me to hear music out of love
From the soul
For this life we all live infinite
With the lover and beloved
As one Ellington sound of love
