[Verse]
I was young and carefree
Not a song had found my soul
Lost in blues, jazz and ragtime
No sound had got to my mood
I was searching for my melody
Love blues that gets me wooed

[Pre-Chorus]
All alone
Sad clown with his circus closed down
Lost on my merry-go-round
Came a melody
In my heart so yearning
Taught me to hear music out of love

[Chorus]
From the soul
For this life
We all live
Infinite
With the lover and beloved
As one Ellington sound of love

[Piano Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
All alone
Sad clown with his circus closed down
Lost on my merry-go-round
Came a melody
In my heart so yearning
Taught me to hear music out of love

[Chorus]
From the soul
For this lifе
We all live
Infinite
With thе lover and beloved
As one Ellington sound of love
