Jon Mclaughlin - Indiana

Filed under: Jazz / Blues | Back to: Homepage

Album: Indiana
Artist: Jon Mclaughlin

Indiana

I’m glad i never lived next to the water
So I could never get used to the beach
And I’m glad I never grew up on a mountain
To figure out how high the world could reach
I love the miles between me and the city
Where I quietly imagine every street
And I’m glad I’m only picturing the moment
I’m glad she never fell in love with me

For some the world’s a treasure to discover
And your scenery should never stay the same
And they’re trading in their dreams for Explanations
All in an attempt to entertain
But I love the miles between me and the city
Where I quietly imagine every street
And I’m glad I’m only picturing the moment

I’m glad she never fell in love with me

The trick of love is to never let it find you
It’s easy to get over missing out
I know the how’s and whens, but now and then,
She’s all I think about

I wonder how it feels to be famous
But wonder is as far as I will go
Because I’d probably lose myself in all the Pictures
And end up being someone I don’t know.
So it’s probably best I stay in Indiana
Just dreaming of the world as it should be
Where every day is a battle to convince myself
I’m glad she never fell in love with me

Norah Jones - Don’t Know Why

Filed under: Jazz / Blues | Back to: Homepage

Album: Come Away With Me

Artist: Norah Jones

Don’t Know Why

 

I waited ’til I saw the sun

I don’t know why I didn’t come

I left you by the house of fun

I don’t know why I didn’t come

I don’t know why I didn’t come

When I saw the break of day

I wished that I could fly away

Instead of kneeling in the sand

Catching teardrops in my hand

My heart is drenched in wine

But you’ll be on my mind

Forever

Out across the endless sea

I would die in ecstacy

But I’ll be a bag of bones

Driving down the road alone

My heart is drenched in wine

But you’ll be on my mind

Forever

Something has to make you run

I don’t know why I didn’t come

I feel as empty as a drum

I don’t know why I didn’t come

I don’t know why I didn’t come

I don’t know why I didn’t come

Album: Pure Ella: The Very Best of Ella Fitzgerald
Artist: Ella Fitzgerald

Summertime
Summertime and the livin is easy
Fish are jumpin and the cotton is high
Oh your daddys rich and your ma is good lookin
So hush little baby, dont you cry
One of these mornings
Youre goin to rise up singing
Then youll spread your wings
And youll take the sky
But till that morning
Theres a nothin can harm you
With daddy and mammy standin by
