A Song I Heard

When I was young I heard a song I've never heard again
It haunts me every night just like it haunted me back then
It stays just inside the edge of my soul, and just outside my mind
And so I go on searching for a song I heard one time

The woman I heard sing the song could phrase a melody
That would take you sailing any place you'd love to be
And bring you to the one you love and set both of you free
So help me find the song I heard one time that means so much to me

So I look through old books and stores full of sheet music and I ask around
I run the tunes all through my head to try and match the sound
And I'll keep singing melodies until one day I find the song I heard
A song I heard
A song I heard one time
