Music Quote by Eric Nickel
“Each time, I hear your lovely song, It makes me smile. Every time, I hear you scream, It breaks my heart. Any time, I hear you crying, My Soul, Weeps. When you smile, I soar. When you laugh, I fly. When you giggle, I whimper. When I see your face, I mistakenly, Think I am witness, To the most beautiful, Thing of all. Yet than, I look into your eyes, And know the truth.”
