Her name was Stella
|
And she was old and gray
|
She had her rusty strings and keys
|
And the tuner, it took a pair of pliers
|
And lots of elbow grease
|
She awakened me to the melody
|
Like the light from a brand new dawn
|
And from that moment on
|
It was all for the sake of the song
|
|
Her name was Maggie
|
She had eyes like fire
|
That burned for me in the dark
|
And all she wanted was my very soul
|
And all she could take from my heart
|
But to her dismay a choice was made
|
And when the deed was done
|
She turned and I was gone
|
It was all for the sake of the song
|
|
And for the sake of the song
|
I walk my own road
|
For the sake of the song
|
Not for silver and gold
|
Some may think that I am wrong
|
But in my heart I know
|
And I've known all along
|
It was all for the sake of the song
|
|
Her name was Laura
|
She was pure like crystal
|
Shining alone on the shelf
|
And from the moment that her eyes met mine
|
I knew there could be nobody else
|
Kindred souls singing free in perfect harmony
|
Two hearts now beat as one
|
The road goes on and on
|
And it's all for the sake of the song
|
|
For the sake of the song
|
I walk my own road
|
For the sake of the song
|
Not for silver and gold
|
Some may think that I am wrong
|
But in my heart I know
|
And I've known all along
|
It was all for the sake of the song
|
|
Her name's Stella
