2004년 초 선보인 비너스 레이블에서의 데뷔작으로 커다란 성공을 거둔 시모네의 두 번째 앨범. 이미 국내에서도 널리 알려진 피아니스트 존 디 마르티노가 이끄는 로맨틱 재즈 트리오와 게스트로 테너 색소폰 연주자 에릭 알랙산더가 참여한 화려한 진용으로 이미 발매 전부터 커다란 화제를 모았던 앨범이다. 특히 호화 세션들의 위상 속에서도 월등한 존재감을 발휘하는 그녀의 개성적인 보이스는 본 작품을 통해 만개하며 그녀의 차기 작품을 기대했던 많은 팬들에게 커다란 만족을 선사하고 있다. 영화 ‘바그다드 카페’의 테마 ‘Calling You’를 비롯하여 고혹적인 보이스로 재현한 빌 위더스의 ‘Whatever Happens’ 등은 필청 트랙이다. .... ....
How do you keep the music playing? How do you make it last? How do you keep the song from fading too fast? How do you lose yourself to someoneAnd never lose your way? How do you not run out of new things to say?
And since we know we're always changing, how can it be the same? And tell me how, year after year, you're sure your heart will fall apart each time you hear his name. I know the way I feel for you, it's now or never. The more I love, the more that I'm afraid that in your eyes I will not see forever.
If we can be the best of lovers, yet be the best of friends, If we can try with ev'ry dayTo make it better as it grows, with any luck, then I suppose, the music never ends...
A blossom fell from off a tree It settled softly on the lips you turned to me The gypsies say, and I know why, a falling blossom only touches lips that lie.
A blossom fell, and very soon, I saw you kissing someone new beneath the moon.
I thought you loved me. You said you loved me. We planned together to dream forever.
The dream has ended, for true love died the night a blossom fell and touched two lips that lied.
Desert road from vegas to nowhere. Some place better than where you've been. Coffee machine that needs some fixin' in a little cafe just around the bend. I am calling you... I am calling you...
A hot, dry wind blowin' right through me, the baby's cryin' and I can't sleep. We both know a change is comin'... comin' closer... such sweet release... I am calling you... I am calling you...
A desert road from vegas to nowhere. Some place better than where you've been. But we both know a change is comin'... comin' closer... such sweet release... I am calling you... I am calling you...
Whatever happens, we'll have some love along the way. When it ain't easy, we'll look for some words of love to say, and smile, and be happy anyway, And we'll kiss before we say good night.
Whatever happens, there'll be some times along the way when it ain't easy. It just can't be sunshine every day. We'll smile, and be happy anyway. And we'll kiss before we say good night.
I've got you in my life. Together we can reach the higher ground. We'll be all right, just as long as you're around. I won't let you down.
Whatever happens, there'll be some good times and some bad. When it ain't easy, let's just remember the good times we had, and smile and be happy anyway. And we'll kiss before we say good night.
Where shall I look for the love to replace you? Someone to light up my life. Someone with strange little ways, eyes like a blue autumn haze and a smile that will be haunting me, endlessly.
Sometimes in stars or the swift flight of sea birds I catch a moment of you. Thats why I walk all alone, searching for something unknown, searching for something or someone to light up my life.
A time for summer skies, for hummingbirds and butterflies, for tender words that harmonize with love.
A time for climbing hills, for leaning out of window sills, admiring daffodils above.
A time for holding hands together, A time for rainbow-coloured weather, A time of make-believe that we've been dreaming of.
As time goes drifting by the willow bends, and so do I. But, oh my friends, whatever sky above, I've known a time for spring, a time for Fall, a time for love.
It seems we stood and talked like this before. We looked at each other in the same way then, but I can't remember where or when.
The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore. The smile you are smiling you were smiling then, but I can't remember where or when.
Some things that happen for the first time, seem to be happening again. And so it seems that we have met before, and laughed before, but who knows where or when.
Treat me sweet and gentle when you say good night. Just squeeze me, but please don't tease me.
I get sentimental when you hold me tight. Just squeeze me, but please don't tease me.
Missing you since you went away, singing the blues away each day. Counting the nights, and waiting for you, I'm in the mood to let you know I never knew I loved you so. Please say you love me too.
When I get this feeling, I'm in ecstasy. So squeeze me, but pleae don't squeeze me.
Whatever happens, we'll have some love along the way. When it ain't easy, we'll look for some words of love to say, and smile, and be happy anyway, And we'll kiss before we say good night.
