John Denver loved dolphins. They nurse their young. They love to touch. They are very talkative. To John dolphins were not just intelligent mammals, but a bit magical-our evolutionary cousin of the sea.
Music makes pictures and often tells stories,
All of it magic and all of it true.
And all of the pictures and all of the stories,
And all of the magic, the music is you.
