The unknown face

When i heard those music notes
my heart flew by, my eyes were lost
it is the tune i hum and hum
sometimes with smile
sometimes in hurt


we were so close
and yet so far
the crowd had swum
he stood afar


forlorn my eyes looked at my star
and sang the song that held me there


i charged on now
to try once more
it was right then
some stranger called
he led the way
and made a path


i was right there
now face to face
swaying by the strumming notes
the stranger there now heard my laugh
and laughed with me, an open heart


i stood and swayed and sang and danced
and when the last note died down
i moved away and left the town


and now i sit and think aloud
i wish i knew the stranger's name
and say thank you
for that moment spent...
