Norah Jones - Those Sweet Words



What did you say? 
I know I saw you singing 
But my ears won't stop ringing 
Long enough to hear 
Those sweet words 
What did you say? 

End of the day 
The hour hand has spun 
But before the night is done 
I just have to hear 
Those sweet words 
Spoken like a melody 

All your love 
Is a lost balloon 
Rising up through the afternoon 
'Til it could fit on the head of a pin 
Come on in 
Did you have a hard time sleeping? 
Cuz the heavy moon was keeping 
Me awake, and all I know is 
I'm just glad to 
See you again 

See my love 
Like a lost balloon 
Rising up 
Through the afternoon, and 
Then you appeared 

What did you say? 
I know what you were singing 
But my ears won't stop ringing 
Long enough to hear 
Those sweet words 
And your simple melody 

I just have to hear 
Those sweet words 
Spoken like a melody 

I just want to hear 
Those sweet words

apt quotation..

“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein (author, aeronautical engineer, and naval officer)
