And for all who call music their escape!
Here are two songs video links as well as the lyrics to the songs. These songs are from my younger days and they were important to me then......... and still are today. In fact Clogger has found much joy in these songs and they even led her to contact the artist himself. She has had many neat and in-depth conversations with the gentleman! He writes a lot of uplifting lyrics and Clogger is drawn to that. Songs about pulling yourself out of the lows and trying to reach for the stars. Anyhow, I am rambling! Sorry! Here is the first song link and it's lyrics:
Hold On by Rik Emmett
HOLD ON
Music hold the secret,
To know it can make you whole
It's not just a game of notes,
It's the sound inside your soul
The magic of the melody
Runs through you like a stream
The notes they play flow through your head
Like a dream
Like a dream
Like a dream
I sing this song for the common man
For the people in despair
I bring my song into the world
And I sing it everywhere
The simple truth lies waiting here
For everyone to share
So hold on, and I will take you there
Hold on and I will take you there
The daily routine takes your soul,
Lost without a trace
It hold you down and turns you 'round
And puts you in your place
Another day, another dollar
Another pretty face
Another chance to lose yourself
In the endless race
CHORUS
Hold on, hold on to your dreams
Hold on, even though it seems
Everyone around you has their little schemes
Listen to your heart and hold on to your dreams
Can't you feel the magic
Feel it everywhere
Can't you hear the music
There's something in the air
There's a celebration
Deep within a song
Celebrate this feeling,
You know it can't be wrong
CHORUS
Caught up in routine,
You got to break it
Time won't wait for us,
We got to make it
Fate gives you the chance
You've got to take it
Take it
Hold on
And finally, song # 2 is
MAGIC POWER
Magic Power by Rik Emmett
Something's at the edge of your mind, you don't know what it is
Something you were hoping to find, but your not sure what it is
Then you hear the music and it all comes crystal clear
The music does the talking, says the things you want to hear
I'm young, I'm wild, and I'm free
I've got the magic power of the music in me
I'm young, I'm wild, and I'm free
I've got the magic power of the music in me
She climbs into the bed, she pulls the covers overhead
And she turns her little radio on
She's had a rotten day, so she hopes the DJ's
Gonna play her favourite song
It makes her feel much better, brings her closer to her dreams
A little magic power makes it better than it seems
She's young now, she's wild now, she wants to be free
She gets the magic power of the music from me
She's young now, she's wild now, she wants to be free
She gets the magic power of the music from me
You're thinking it over, but you just can't sort it out
Do you want someone to tell you what they think it's all about
Are you the one and only who's sad and lonely, you're reaching for the top
Well the music keeps you going and it's never gonna stop
It's never gonna stop
It's never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna stop
The world is full of compromise, the infinite red tape
But the music's got the magic, it's your one chance for escape
Turn me on, turn me up, it's your turn to dream
A little magic power makes it better than it seems
I'm young now, I'm wild now, I want to be free
I've got the magic power of the music in me
I'm young now, I'm wild, and I'm free
I've got the magic power of the music
I've got the music in me
I've got the power
I've got the magic
She's got the power
She's got the magic
