Story Behind The Song

Sometimes life doesn't happen the way we plan it, but we have to keep going.

Lyrics

A flying machine on the runway with no lift to rise from the ground
A beautiful dream wanting to stay on awaking is no longer around
An oasis in the desert sun to quench the thirst of a traveling one
Fulfilling if it weren't an illusion

I've got a song in my heart
It's so deep no one can hear
The rhythm burns like a fire
And in the smoke it disappears
I've got a song in my heart
Though it's so sweet the words are unclear
My song, give it a chance
Give me the music to dance

A longtime love though exciting remains unrequited, unsatisfied
A carrier dove with news so inviting slips through your fingers takes off into the sky
Coming close to reaching your goal there's no power to open the door
No spirit to try anymore

A little effort, a little time
And you will call the elusive notes back to your mind
