Visions of Rachmaninov

 

{Cm}Visions of Rachmaninov {Fm}dance across my {G7}mind,

{Fm}Slowly, {G7}softly, {Fm}lightly{G7}, {Fm}through the {G7}winds of {Cm}time,

Across the Russian steppe lands to {Fm}Moscow’s city {G7}rhyme.

His Pi{Fm}ano sends them {G7}brightly through {Fm}all the {G7}space and {Cm}time,

{Fm}Slowly, {G7}softly, {Fm}lightly, {G7}in his {Cm}manner.

 

Melissa, angel singing, {Fm}dances in my {G7}mind.

{Fm}Slowly, {G7}softly, {Fm}lightly{G7}, {Fm}all at {G7}once, all {Cm}time.

From across the wide Missouri to {Fm}Boston’s freedom’s {G7}rhyme,

{Fm}Her guitar re{G7}members over {Fm}all the {G7}space and {Cm}time.

{Fm}Slowly, {G7}softly, {Fm}lightly, {G7}in her {Cm}way.

 

Wagner’s ancient rhythms {Fm}dance across my {G7}mind,

{Fm}Slowly, {G7}softly, {Fm}lightly{G7}, from {Fm}old teu{G7}tonic {Cm}time.

Along the Rheinland river to Val{Fm}halla’s thundering {G7}rhyme,

His {Fm}voices sail them {G7}high across a {Fm}wall of {G7}later {Cm}time.

{Fm}Slowly, {G7}softly, {Fm}lightly, {G7}in his {Cm}manner.

 

I, with Angelina, {Fm}dance within my {G7}mind.

{Fm}Slowly, {G7}softly, {Fm}lightly{G7}, we {Fm}wander {G7}through our {Cm}time.

Looking for the rhythm that {Fm}makes itself the {G7}rhyme,

We {Fm}wander through our {G7}memories, re{Fm}gardless {G7}of the {Cm}time.

{Fm}Slowly, {G7}softly, {Fm}lightly, {G7}in our {Cm}way.
