There is a secret melody that plays in the heart of all who love.

Secret Melody
by Michael Romani

A memory caught in a secret song
Swell of timbre that seems to strong
Music has its way with those
Whose ears this mystery has chose

Hated only by those whose pain
Has caused melancholy and strain
Still, the sun soaked plaza holds its secret
Held in the open and without any regret

We have to sing and we need to play
As we follow our hearts days after day
With faith in our dreams we smile and reach
For all the best lessons that life will teach

Guided by our treasured bits of history
We find our places by love and in family
It's there in our whispered legacy
Deep in our hearts, we find our destiny

And I know that whenever we are apart
I remember you deep inside my beating heart
Singing your melody sweetly into my mind's ear
Knowing that forever, you will always be near
