Sounds Like: The setting to music of lyrics.
For example... HOW STILL THE NIGHT
The wind was so still, there was no wind at all
And the night was so quiet I could hear your heart call
And the waves touched so lightly the sand wasn’t shore
How far the stars
How high the sky
And my two arms
To hold you tight
How full the moon
How still the night?
Your shirt wore so thin, it was no shirt at all
And you said that there be no need for the coat I wore
I said “If you don’t hold me now I fear I will fall… and
How far the stars
How high the sky
And my two arms
To hold you tight
How full the moon
How still the night?
We slow-danced in the headlights till the battery went dead
And if the fish in the sea could’ve seen where this scene went next
They’d be jumping
