Ragtime: The Musical
New Music
Where have I been?
How did we change?
Caught in a strange new music.
Say, was I away too long?
Just like that tune,
simple and clear,
I've come to hear new music
Why, why can't you hear the song?
His fingers stroke those keys,
and every note says please,
and every chord says turn my way.
I thought I knew what love was, but these lovers play new music.
Haunting me, and somehow taunting me,
My love was never half as true,
And I ask myself,
why can't I sing it too?
His fingers stroke those keys,
and every note says please,
and every chord says turn my way.
I thought I knew what love was, but these lovers play new music.
Haunting me, and somehow taunting me,
My love was never half as true.
Sarah my life has changed,
Sarah you've got to see,
Sarah, we've got a son,
Sarah come down to me!
You and your music,
singing deep in me
making nice to me,
saying something so new,
changing everything,
meaning everything,
calling my heart to you,
play that melody,
your sweet melody,
calling my heart to you.
Just like that tune, simple and clear,
I've come to hear new music.
Breaking my heart, opening the door, changing the world, new music.
I hear it forevermore!
