Bill Harley performs this song on Down in the Backpack.
 
Listen to the wind in the trees
The rush of the breeze
As it whispers and sighs
Listen to the cars in the street
Of footsteps and feet
As people pass by
Listen to the roar of the crowd
Or the laughing out loud
Of kids as they play
Listen to the rain as it falls
Or the lone bird that calls
At the end of the day
Everything is music
Everything is music
Everything is music to me
There's music in the stars as they spin
The day that begins
with a quiet sunrise
There's music in the world as it turns
the fire that burns
into embers and dies
There's music in the river that runs
From where it's begun
Til it ends in the sea
There's music in the waves on the shore
They crash and they roar
and sing out to me
Everything is music
Everything is music
Everything is music to me
Everything is music to me
Listen! Listen!
Listen to the music playing
Once you hear how the world sings
And all that it brings
Then nothing's the same
Once you find that we all belong
to one great big song
that always remains
Once you hear
the river of time
the rhythm and rhyme
in you and in me
Then you know the beat of your heart
Has its own part
in this big symphony
Everything is music
Everything is music
Everything is music to me.
