Astranova - She gave me the Song Lyrics

She stood in the kitchen the radio played
With a smile that could chase any storm away
Her voice carried the melody so pure
Every note a promise steady and sure
I sat beside her a kid with a dream
The world in my hands or so it seemed

She said music heals music gives you might
A song in your heart will keep you upright

She gave me the song
The rhythm that keeps my blood moving strong
With every note with every word
She showed me the way my safe place in the world
Oh Mama I sing because of you
Your voice echoes in everything I do

The old record player her sacred shrine
Johnny Cash Dolly Parton her legends divine
I saw her tears in the light of a tune
Music taught me the soul's deepest truths
Her hands on the beat her eyes open wide
She gave me the courage to dream and to fly

She said music is love music is your shield
Go out in the world and sing what you feel

She gave me the song
The rhythm that keeps my blood moving strong
With every note with every word
She showed me the way my safe place in the world
Oh Mama I sing because of you
Your voice echoes in everything I do

And when the stage goes dark the lights fade away
I still hear your voice guiding my way
Keep playing my child let the world hear your call
Because music's a fire that will never fall

She gave me the song
The rhythm that keeps my blood moving strong
With every note with every word
