An octelle for the Potlatch Club

More Than You Know

by June Sargent



You're more than just a saxophone
that soothes me with your mellow tone.

You understand my sadness
and never judge my madness.

When nerves are wrought I'm manic,
but you don't let me panic.

You're more than just a saxophone
that soothes me with your mellow tone.
