The Sweetest Sound of All

THE SWEETEST SOUND OF ALL
by TONY KING © FEB 2013
The sound of the wind through the shell of a man
on his final tour of Afghanistan
The only thing keeps him on his feet
Is the sound of his child that he is yet to meet
It’s the sweetest sound of All
It’s the sweetest sound of All

The sound of the fire raging through the trees
It’s surrounded his house and he’s on his knees
The fire fighters come… he thinks he dreams
But the sound of fire turns into steam
It’s the sweetest sound of All
It’s the sweetest sound of All

I had a dream
I had a dream
I had a dream
I had a dream

The Leaders meet, to consider the Earth
They must decide just what it’s worth
Will they say Yes?…. Will they commit?
The vote is cast …The Ayes have it

It’s the sweetest sound of All
It’s the sweetest sound of All
