With songs of sadness and of mirth,

Just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling

As long as I'm singing,
There's a bell up in my brain that's ringing,
Makin' a crazy 'ding dong'.
And if this band don't desert me,
Then there's nothin' in the world can hurt me,
Long as I'm singing my song.

Beautiful songs could sometimes take a person out of themselves and carry them away to a place of magic. But when Jill sang, it was not about the song, really. She could sing the phone book. She could sing a shopping list. Whatever she sang, whatever the words or the tune, it was so beautiful, so achingly lovely, that no one could listen and be untouched.

A tone
Of some world far from ours,
Where music and moonlight and feeling
Are one.

Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last
Your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not
Good enough for anyone
Else to hear
Just sing, sing a song.
