I heard a tune...

It seems so far away, the soft tune ringing inside my head.
I tried to hold it close, but it slips away, laughing at my efforts.
It's making mischief, coming back whenever it wants to.
I doubt it will hurt me, but I wishes it will stay,
Till the day I found The One that will play it out loud.

My music lost its way, I lost my skill.
A loss of time, my piano left alone.
No uncertainty that I love music, life's a chore without it.
But I love to play with words, its my best playmate.
Even though music is my life.

The softest tune can get me humming, my toe starts tapping.
Life is more than pain, it is a story, with its ups and downs.
Likewise when I write my song, it will be with great joy.
All uncertainty and doubts, I give them up to the Lord,
For surely He will take them into His care.

I crave to write a song, a song of love and joy,
A song of pain and loss,
Of a life well-lived.
The tune still evades me, hoping it will come back soon.
Tuney-kid, come back to my heart, ok?
