“I was young and carefree
Not a song had found my soul
Lost in Blues, Jazz and Ragtime
No Sound had got to my mood
I was searching for my melody
Love blues that gets me wooed
All along, sad clown with his circus closed down
Lost on my merry-go-around
Came a melody in my heart so yearning
Taught me to hear music out of love
From the soul, for this life
We all live infinite
With a lover and beloved
As one Ellington sound of love”
Charles Mingus, ‘Duke Ellington’s Sound of Love’ – momento iluminado… 🙂
