Lyric

Woke up drifting through velvet skies

Soft piano and lullaby highs

A neon glow through clouds so thin

Jazz notes dancing on the wind

Judy croons in her satin tone

While Frank snaps fingers, all alone

Ella scats with a velvet flair

And Nat King Cole is floating there

Chet's trumpet sighs in midnight air

A heaven lounge, beyond compare

Spotlights spin on Mom and Dad

Sipping gin, looking young and glad

Their laughter echoes with the beat

Tapping gently in their seat

This ain't a dream, it's swingin' grace

A smoky, timeless after-place

Sinatra’s fedora, Billie’s blue sigh

Dean’s smooth line and Sammy’s high

Lena in pearls, Marilyn’s wink

Legends toast with heaven’s drink

The rhythm’s soft, the lights are low

The curtain lifts for one last show

On the stage, the stories live

Old scenes that still have love to give

The voices echo from before

And open up a golden door

Applause rains down like falling stars

Lighting up these midnight bars

Do I stay, or fade away?

The band plays on

The soul will sway
