Rock And Roll Poem by Barry Middleton
Rock And Roll
the song I want to play
aches for harmony
but I will keep on singing
till life abandons me
freedom is an angel
coming to my dream
serenity's protection
against an evil scheme
they say we get too old
for rock and roll
and music has an end
but if truth be told
I still have soul
or so I can pretend
evening is a dream
there I play my song
I must keep on singing
till death will take me home
midnight brings an angel
to sing along with me
and I am young again
and I again am free
they say we get too old
for rock and roll
and music has an end
but if truth be told
I still have soul
or so I can pretend
when the sun is fading
the melody is mine
I close my eyes and pray
for music is divine
the band is tuning up now
soon we start to play
and rock on till the sunrise
to welcome one more day
they say we get too old
for rock and roll
and music has an end
but if truth be told
I still have soul
or so I can pretend
