RETOLD

You take those things

Those worn out things

You turn them into gold

For many years

No matter the tears

They just somehow seemed old

But in your hands

Through the sound of your voice

They live and soon take hold

Like a new song

I have waited so long

To hear it done so bold

And now it’s not

Just a part of it

It’s a scene that’s been retold

I want to hear it again

See it again

This new wonder you have sold
