about

Suzanne Mueller’s cello has graced many of our recordings as far back
as 2001. She wrote this song in 2007, and we have been performing it with her regularly since that time. We are delighted to present it here.

lyrics

St. Vincent Millay was right, but wrong, too
Music’s not just a rampart but a bridge joining me to you
Arching across the void that divides us
Replacing cold silence, harmonies unify us.

But now, when solitude you seek,
The bridge stands broken and blocked
You make your music a barrier
With which to shut me out

Where are the notes that will break through your wall,
Pierce your ramparts and bring me back home?
Until I can find them
I stand and I call
But I’ll one day rebuild love’s bridge to your heart with a song.
