Analysis of Segovia's Strings
Beautiful strings
So sublime to hear
Full of life
Yet full of fear
A fear that one day
Segovia will awake
And find his love
His Ramirez
At stake
The modern age
Building up the wall
The Maestro broke down
Taking many years
To finally fall
Brazilian Rosewood
Stroked by his genius
Bold musicianship
Faith to finish it
