Ray Hansell (New Jersey)
Music
Words and lyrics make a song
For all who want to sing
But for a song to be great
Words are not everything
In fact a song can be great
With no words at all
Songs without words
Are the I most often recall
Music to a movie or a TV show
May have a catchy tune
One that stays in your head
One that never leaves soon
A song without words
Can be a big hit
But a song with words and no music
It wouldn't be a good fit
So you see you can have music
But you really don't need words
Can you think of a catchy tune
That you recently heard?
