For we must have music

Listen to the strain it plays once more for us
There it is again the past in store for us
wake in memory some forgotten song
to break the rhythm driving us along
and may...
harmony again at last call for us

play orchestra play
play something sweet and light and gay
for we must have music we must have music
to drive our fears away

while our illusions swiftly fade for us
lets have have an orchestra score
in the confusion the years have made for us
serenade for us just once more

life needn't be grey,
though its changing day by day

though a few old dreams may decay
play orchestra play
play orchestra play
Noel Coward
