Oh, babe Yeah I left my friends some years ago I took my love and dream to roam, girl Cross down in the countryside To make this little town my home Nothing to me matters now Except that dream and you The magic of your laughter, girl And the dollar in my shoe Listen to the wind The quiet river roll The music of my life The rhythm of my soul How I love that sound Let it all begin Listen to the melody And the power of love within From Tucson to the Southern Coast A friendly dog he followed me, girl He died one day in San Jose I had to leave him by the sea No, I haven't saved too much But what I have we'll share A song I just wrote yesterday And the magic feeling in the air Listen to the wind The quiet river roll The music of my life The rhythm of my soul How I love that sound Let it all begin Listen to the melody And the power of love within Listen to the wind The quiet river roll The music of my life The music of my life The rhythm of my soul How I love that sound Let it all begin Listen to the melody And the power of love within Listen to the wind The quiet river roll The music of my life The rhythm of my soul How I love that sound Let it all begin Listen to the melody And the power of love within Oh, listen to the wind The quiet river roll The music of my life The rhythm of my soul How I love that sound Let it all begin Listen to the melody
