Symphony

Echoed (echoed) lightly (lightly) overhead?
Are you listening to me in the sweet symphony?

Can you hear the bells above the drums
Echoed (echoed) lightly (lightly) overhead?
As you clap with all the hands around you (overhead),
Are you listening to me in the sweet symphony?

Cigarettes and chandeliers and velvet
Caught reflected in your eyes...
Canes and gloves and scented cloves on ruby lips;
A million people all dressed up to watch me die...
Will someone hear this now
From the crowded seats?
A woman that will listen
Just for me?

Can you hear the bells above the drums
Echoed (echoed) lightly (lightly) overhead?
As you clap with all the hands around you (overhead),
Are you listening to me in the sweet symphony?

Piccolos and resined bows and brass horns
Surrounded in a sea of black and white...
Gods and men and soaring wings of angels
Staring from the painted marble sky...
Will someone hear me now
From the crowded streets?
A woman in a million
Just for me?

Can you hear the bells above the drums
Echoed (echoed) lightly (lightly) overhead?
As you clap with all the hands around you (overhead),
Are you listening to me in the sweet symphony?

Symphony...
My sweet symphony.

So sayeth The Brad...
