The Music Sets The Mood Poem by Kelly Boutin

When life just gets too hard
And you forget who you are
Just turn on the radio
you're safe, you're at home
your heart beats to the tune
this is the rhythm of you
the music sets the mood.

When no one seems to care
when nothin matters
you can still find family
in a gentle melody
people who who make you feel at home
people who say that you belong
baby, this is your song!

(Chorus)
The music sets the mood,
the feeling gets to you
the lyrics make it right
you start to come alive
you start to feel okay
you can make it through the day
let the music chase the blues away
let you feel the way you should
get you back to feeling good
yeah, the music sets the mood.

Let the music bring you back

To the first date you ever took
when you first fell in love
when you held out your arms
and let her step into your heart
with so many people all around
you knew you'd never want out
and you still love her now.

Oh, the music sets the mood
and you knew your love was true
when her eyes sparkled at you
and when you held her hand
you knew you'd never understand.

How the music sets the mood
the feeling gets to you
the lyrics make it right
you start to come alive
you look into her eyes
you know there'll come a time
when you make music of your own
when you share each other's home
when you never have to be alone
because you feel the way you do
and the music sets the mood.

(Repeat Chorus)
