Have you ever had that experience when a song begins to play and somehow the lyrics or the melody manage to say what you’ve not quite been able to say? Sometimes a song can express ideas we didn’t know we were thinking or emotions we didn’t realize we were feeling. Sometimes sounds can speak for us.
