I Am Music Lyrics


I was here before life began
In the wind and on the ways of the sea.
Lying on the flowers,
Dancing through the trees.
I am Music, I am ageless, I am Love.
And when the first man came,
I was there lying in his brain,
I gave to him my treasure,
I lifted him in pain..
I am Music, I am timeless, I am Love.
Music is the soul of man
Giving when the words can't deceive,
Can't deceive.
Precious as the wind and rain

Living in His laughter and His tears.
I have led the young man of many years
On to battle fields
Lasting sounds of vict'ry in their ears
Soothing mother's tears
I am Music, I am Comfort, I am Love..

Carmen Mercedes McRae (1920-1994) was a U.S. jazz singer, songwriter, and pianist. McRae was born in Harlem, New York, on the 8th April 1920, and studied piano as a child. As a teenager she came to the attention of Teddy Wilson and his wife, the composer Irene Kitchings Wilson. Through their influence, one of McRae’s early songs, "Dream of Life", was recorded by Wilson’s longtime collaborator Billie Holiday.
