Phonograph of memories,
Play an upbeat tune,
One to match the energetic days
Of precious youth
Play some old-fashioned rock-n-roll,
A thunderous beat for that rebellious phase
Play a bit of smooth jazz,
Velvet caressing the ears in gentle melancholy
Play a sentimental song, melody soft
And lyrics hauntingly beautiful,
Mirroring a bittersweet past I can’t forget
Phonograph of memories,
Play the sacred music of my life
