I Let the Music Speak

Where I'm one with every grand illusion
I let the music speak, leading me gently
Let it be a joke
No disturbance, no intrusion
Urging me like a lover
Coming from a heart, speaking to a heart, let it be a cry
Let it be the joy of each new sunrise
(All illusion, no disturbance, no intrusion)

Let it be a farce, if it makes me laugh for a little while
No questions why
Let it be a farce, if it makes me laugh for a little while
Rustling down an old Alley
Where I let the wistful sounds seduce me
Yes, I let the music speak
I take it to me and let it flow through me
Some streets are emptiness, dry leaves of autumn
Or the moment when a day dies

Coming from a heart, speaking to a heart, let it be a cry
Let it be a sigh
Carry my soul away into the world
No explanations

So strange yet we're so well acquainted
Let it be a smile
Leading me all the way into a place
Where beauty will defeat the darkest day
Let it be a tear
Let it be a tear
Where beauty meets the darkness of the day
I let my feelings take over
Voices call out to me, straight to my heart
Let it be a sigh

Let it be a joke
Let it be a tear
Where my mind is like an open window
(Let them wake me, let them now, let them take me)
I surrender without reservation

From my shallow sleep the sounds awake me
Where the high and healing winds blow

A blind man in some ancient valley
I let the music speak, with no restraints
Let it be a sigh

Let it be a smile
And in the dead of night, I find myself
I let them use me
I let them take me
Coming from a heart, speaking to a heart, let it be a cry
