My Voice Broke

My voice broke into song
with a code cracking smile
Left a note upon my tongue
Cleared my throat and then was lost


You take my breath away when you go
You take my breath away when you go

My voice broke the silence
and I choked upon those shards
Then I broke into tears
with a code breaking heart

Was I too much to sustain?
Were you drowning out in sound?
Were you sore from all the strain?
The vibrato left you shakin'
How could I anticipate
you would drown out in the sound?
I was too far out of range
to help you sound it out
