TO MY SON, by                    
First Line: You play on the strings of my heart
Last Line: Just sings and sings.
Subject(s): Sons


You play on the strings of my heart;
Your mood is my mood;
All minor chords I catch,
All joyous ones I match.
If yours are light
And gay,
That day
For me is right;
And makes for me a song,
That all day long,
Just sings and sings.
