사라 제인 모리스는 영국에서 태어난 여성 재즈 디바이다. 그녀는 자신의 독특한 보이스 컬러로 인해 지역 신에서 이름을 날리며 단시간 내 지금의 유명세에까지 이르렀다. 본 음반은 오랫동안 기다렸던 국내의 팬들을 위한 그녀의 네 번째 솔로작으로 2003년 발표되어 다운비트를 비롯한 미국 평론등에서 높은 평가를 획득하며 그녀에게 롱런을 위한 길을 터준 것으로 판단된다. 주목할 트랙은 'Love And Pain', 'Nothing Comes From Nothing' 등이며 재니스 조플린에게 바치는 곡인 'A Horse Named Janis Joplin' 역시 뛰어난 음악적 완성도를 뽐내고 있다. .... ....
A light that shone, in these darkned rooms Rooms I remember only too well The backroom, the basement, the attic and your bed Well it lies empty and inslept in, when you're gone I lose my head
The scent on the sheets, as I go to sleep Under my nails from scratching so deep A room full of lust, to drive me insane Yes you linger in me, just like love and pain
Some nights you're a vision, that shimmers slightly in the rain And other times you seethe and you course through my veins
You linger like love and pain (love and pain) That scarlet holy stain Yes you linger like love and pain Love and pain
My body aches to breath your breath With your words you keep me alive Nothing between us but nakedness While you suck my lifeblood through your crazy eyes
Some nights you're a vision, that shimmers slightly in the rain And other times you seethe and you course through my veins
Yes you linger like love and pain (love and pain) That scarlet holy stain Yes you linger like love and pain Yes you linger like love and pain
Some nights you're a vision, that shimmers slightly in the rain And other times you seethe and you course through my veins
Yes you linger like love and pain That scarlet holy stain Yes you linger like love and pain Love and pain Well you linger like love and pain Love and pain Love and pain...
I'm gonna drink my wine and go get high Coz I'm leaving on the bus tonight I'm gonna go and take that bus Gonna find me someone monogamous Someone faithful, someone kind With a see-through heart, enquiring mind I'm gonna ride right out of here And I'm never ever coming back
Well this occasion's all your fault-yeah The time has come to call a hault-yeah When all is said, when all is done-yeah I'm gonna find a way to get to you Coz I know where you come from
I get high, I get low, then I have got to go Yes I get high, I get low, then I have got to go
Well I have lived my life I've seen a lot
Ain't nothing here that I can see That's how it goes that's how it ends Ain't nothing here belongs to me Except my bags and portable And my ticket just affordable I've got my pride right by my side And I'm never ever coming back
Well this occasion's all your fault-yeah The time has come to call a hault-yeah When all is said, when all is done-yeah I'm gonna find a way to get to you Coz I know where you come from
Spring had barely come and I found myself alone With you went my dreams and everything I own I guess like flares and Celtic tattoos I'm out of style, I'm yesterday's news
And what you haven't taken, I've given away Some things you share forever, Well what more can I say?
It's time to name the saddest tune Cowboy Junkies blue moon It's time to name the saddest tune Cowboy Junkies blue moon
I'm wasting all my time, hurting on loves crime The world I through I knew has shown another side Gonna smoke away all of my regrets In a sad blue haze, but I'll never forget!
And every friend I've ever had Who liked it blue, who liked it sad Would know where I was at right now Would know my song there anyhow
It's time to name the saddest tune Cowboy Junkies blue moon It's time to name the saddest tune Cowboy Junkies blue moon
Well I've tried do hard, yes I've tried so hard Not to cry this time There's a river running through my head And the tears are mine, the tears are mine
Every friend I've ever had Who liked it blue, who liked it sad Would know where I was at right now Would know my song there anyhow
It's time to name the saddest tune Cowboy Junkies blue moon It's time to name the saddest tune Cowboy Junkies blue moon
When the sun stes in this ageless sky I'll wipe your tears, kiss them dry And as I kneel beside your bed and sing you to your sleep I pray to God, your hopes I'll keep While your gently sleeping, peaceful dreaming I pray that nothing ever haunts you, baby
Wrap your innocence around you
As you look out of the window of your world What do you see? Tell me! Your trusting eyes are full of wonder and delight To share with me, so free You're my precious angel, sweet, sweet angel I was lost until I found you, baby
Wrap your innocence around you
Deep down in my soul, oh I know, yes I know that you're on loan One day you will fly away You are my angel and I thank my God that each and every day He allows me to share you till you go away Deep down in my soul, oh I know, yes I know that you're on loan
Deep down in my soul, all I know, yes I know that you're on loan For you I would hold up the sky You are my angel and I thank my God for each and every day He allows me to share you until you go away
Spend all your time waiting For that second chance For a break that would make it okay Theres always one reason To feel not good enough And its hard at the end of the day I need some distraction Oh beautiful release Memory seeps from my veins Let me be empty And weightless and maybe Ill find some peace tonight
In the arms of an angel Fly away from here From this dark cold hotel room And the endlessness that you fear You are pulled from the wreckage Of your silent reverie Youre in the arms of the angel May you find some comfort there
So tired of the straight line And everywhere you turn Theres vultures and thieves at your back And the storm keeps on twisting You keep on building the lie That you make up for all that you lack It dont make no difference Escaping one last time Its easier to believe in this sweet madness oh This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
In the arms of an angel Fly away from here From this dark cold hotel room And the endlessness that you fear You are pulled from the wreckage Of your silent reverie Youre in the arms of the angel May you find some comfort there Youre in the arms of the angel May you find some comfort here
