Songs

“So Sally can wait
She knows it’s too late as she’s walking on by
My soul slides away
But don’t look back in anger
Don’t look back in anger
I heard you say
At least not today”
– “Don’t look back in anger” -Oasis

“Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I’m getting old, and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go
Somewhere only we know?”
– “Somewhere only we know” -Keane

Songs are
our collective memories
and shared feelings –
the heartbeat
of our experiences.
They remind us of
what it is to be human –
to live and to love,
to cry and to laugh,
to hurt and to heal.
