A Song - By Vangelis



A poem by Vangelis, from his track "A Song" from the LP "Earth" (1973), a definite precursor to the last track from Blade Runner, a lovely thing, transcribed by me, from me to you, whoever you are.

A SONG
------

I would like to write a song
that is so vibrant
and is so intimate
that the earth would adopt it,
as if it had sprung
like a stream
from the the land's memory,
as if no one had written it
but life itself.

And my song would travel along
from bird
to wing
to tree
to breeze
to heart
to breath
to song

'cause a song belongs to everyone
like the Spring.
