Where Does The Music Come From?

Hannah sent me the following quote:

"What do you mean, where does the music come from? Where does the music ever come from? The guy says to the girl 'Something is on my mind,' and the girl says 'Really? What is it?' and somebody in the orchestra hits a note and they sing. That's where the music comes from."

And then I wrote this:

Where Does The Music Come From?
Music comes from all kinds of places,
from flutes and cellos and singers with smiling faces.
It comes from the fear we feel when people die.
It comes from the pain of saying goodbye.
Music comes from the joy when we meet
Music comes from the feeling of when families eat.
Some music comes from tired mothers singing sing lullabies
And some music comes from professional Italians in ties.
There are those who say music comes from the head
And then, there are those who play what cannot be said.
Music comes from the flutter when I look in your eyes.
Music tells naught but true love - and never lies.
Music comes from the way you hold my hand.
Music comes from the day that we met in band.
Music comes from the angels, who live above.
Music comes from those who love.

What do you think?
