There are some that dream of flying,

And others dream of sheep

But when I close my eyes, all that I see

Is an imaginary orchestra

Directed by me

The sounds wash over me

Like a soothing spring breeze

The violins swaying like willow trees

My arms sway and the music swells

Crescendoing to a distant tale

Of love and loss and loneliness

That the audience can feel

Then I open up my eyes

And I’m still in my room

Four walls a cage that I want to break through

Someday I hope I’ll see the orchestra in my mind
