naming the better choices

where words and music in due course combine
we choose each time to listen or to dance
life's more than bread and water beer or wine

the finest elements from raw ore we'll refine
each of us in our turn will take our chance
where words and music in due course combine

for what we want for that we will not pine
we'll get our pay or we will not advance
life's more than bread and water beer or wine

the whole thing's not about what's yours or mine
although we cast a glamour of romance
where words and music in due course combine

each of us will our tastes and hopes define
we'll take things in with more than just a glance
life's more than bread and water beer or wine

and in the end where some might draw the line
there'll be a moment where we fall in trance
where words and music in due course combine
life's more than bread and water beer or wine
