abbey lincoln - learning how to listen (2007) lyrics

[intro]
life is like a song to sing
with measured beats and phrases
with bended notes and some repeats
music through the ages
that brings the highs, the lows, the swells
sometimes it’s for an ending
bringing other songs to sing
ascending, descending

[verse 1]
i’m learnin’ how to listen
how to hear a melody
how to hear the song i’m singin’
how to feel and let it be
and listen for the song
knowin’ how it goes
and listen to the melody that flows

[verse 2]
music is a lover
with shiny golden wings
that whispers in the lover’s ear
and dances when it sings
and sends a variation
on an everlasting theme
it’s either love or sorrow on the scene
[verse 3]
i’m learnin’ how to listen
for the songs i name and sign
and claim as a possession
and say that they are mine
’cause everybody knows
that songs come from out of the blue
and i’m learnin’ how to hear the changes too

[slide guitar solo]

[verse 1]
i’m learnin’ how to listen
how to hear a melody
how to hear the song i’m singin’
how to feel and let it be
and listen for the song
knowin’ how it goes
and listen for the melody that flows
and listen for the melody that flows
