Recital Al Cantor

A singer who sings softly
Is either scared or has a weak voice
But the one who sings out loud
Has a wounded heart

A singer who sings too slow
Gently, without burning
Is singing to himself
Is singing just for him

A singer just for singing's sake
Doesn't need to be that kind of singer
He might be able to sing
But he'll never be a true singer

Poor little singer
Who sings without knowing that
When pain hits him hard
He'll be left standing alone

Poor little singer
Who doesn't sing the truth
He'll be left when he dies
Lost in his loneliness
