The Absence

Melody Gardot The Absence Lyrics
1.Mira

Lyricist:Melody Gardot
Writer(s):Melody Gardot

Mira, mmmmmm
Mira, if you never come to me my darling
I'll burn in boiling eternity

The felicidad that I hold in my heart
Is a pretty good start for us 2
And if in the world there were only ... days
I would how find how ... in the blues
Mira, look at what you do to me
Mira, look at all the fantasy
Mira, this is such a lovely way to be

In all that I've seen, all the love that I've seen
Is the love that reminds me of you
In every smile is a trace of the joy
That I feel like a sweet morning ...
Mira, look at what you do to me
Mira, look at all the fantasy
Mira, this is such a lovely way to be

Oh Mira, look at what you do to me
Mira, look at all the fantasy
Mira, this is such a lovely way to be.

Well when you wake in the morning
Little eyes open wide
When there's no ????
No surprises, no surprise

But maybe your wing may be broken
Maybe you're learning to fly
Well so am I

Amalia, finding the way out on the open road
Amalia, going whichever the wind gon' go
Amalia, taking her chances on the open sea
Amalia, hoping the breeze is gonna carry me

Maybe fate, maybe reason
Made you fall from the sky
Like the tides, like the seasons
Ever changing, you and I

So where do you go when worry takes you?
Where do you go when somebody makes you cry?

Amalia, finding the way out on the open road
Amalia, going whichever way the wind gon' go
Amalia, taking her chances on the open sea
Amalia, funny little bird hanging out with me

Ohhh, little funny little bird hanging out with me.


3.So Long

Lyricist:Melody Gardot
Writer(s):Melody Gardot

Don't wait home for me darling,
I'm not coming home!
Draw the blinds and set the alarm,
cause I'm not coming home
In the morning you will rise
With.. in your eyes
Cause I'll be gone,
I'm moving on
Goodbye, so long!

Every flower has fade..
I am not, I'm in home.
Tears may fall your lashes my...
But I'm not coming home
Forever is on my mind
And I have just got to find
A place I belong...
So long!
So long!
So long!

Every pawn is drown to closing
I am not coming home
Way could.. so everyone knows I'm not coming home
Goodbye, so long!


4.So We Meet Again My Heartache

Lyricist:Melody Gardot
Writer(s):Melody Gardot

So we meet again my heartache
So we meet again my friend
I should've known that you'd return

So we meet again my heartache
Like two lovers torn apart
Bound together by the breaking
Of a tired and torrid heart

So we meet again my heartache
Just as leaves begin to change
How you've made my life a story
Filled with whirls you've rearranged

So we meet again my heartache
Come and join me in my pain
You're the reason I remember
Every sweet and sad charade

So we meet again my heartache
Come and sit with me a while
Rest your head upon my shoulder
Hide your face beneath my smile

So we meet again my heartache
Hold the glasses stilled with wine
I hope you join me in my toast, my ghoulish host
And maybe stay a while this time.


5.Lisboa

Lyricist:Melody Gardot
Writer(s):Melody Gardot

Lisboa, hi Lisboa
The soul of your days come by
Know the heaten land of love beneath
All your faith in the skies
Lisboa, Lisboa
From arms, to live or die
People enter, falling in the quite
See love so
The twilight ember feel any
Paint the air of evening, oh so
And bind
So just there's this history left to tell you
Hi Lisboa
A paradise besides the sea
beauty, to the absence of painting all of your
Scenery
Oho, Lisboa, Lisboa,

Lyricist:Melody Gardot
Writer(s):Melody Gardot

This is an impossible love
the kind you only hear of .my the dreams

the sin dramatic skin just never as lovely eyes it seems
yes this is an impossible love
the flame unless just . love

This is an impossible love
the both of your arms would .in the grace
it's such an exausting .
few in my heart with only alussion .


7.If I Tell You I Love You

Lyricist:Melody Gardot
Writer(s):Melody Gardot

There are so many things I could say, my love
Make you trip, so your lips would be mine
There are so many things I could do, my love
To convince you my love is divine
There are so many words I could tell you
There are so many moments in time
But I say 'fore we go to the land down below
If I tell you I love you, I'm lying

There are so many places to go, my love
There are so many places to find
There are so many worlds to explore, my love
There are so many stars yet to shine
There are so many secrets to tell you
There are so many men on the line
But I say 'fore we go to the land down below
If I tell you I love you, I'm lying


8.Goodbye

Lyricist:Melody GardotJesse Harris
Writer(s):Melody GardotJesse Harris

Goodnight was just a little word you learned.
Somewhere somebody that you burned
Was all too happy with a lie

But love, you know you never got it right
I don't know why you say goodnight
You only mean to say goodbye

And i know you quick to show your lover to the door
And you ain't never been in love before
You're only bound to get it wrong

And I know you're just a victim of your circumstance
I never know in any real romance
And so we ought to say so long, goodbye, so long
Goodbye

I know you're only trying to ease my mind
But I'm-a lay it on the line, this time
You only need to say goodbye

Oh, love, you know you never got it right
I don't know why you say goodnight
You only mean to say goodbye (x4)


9.Se Voce Me Ama

Lyricist:Melody GardotHeitor Pereira
Writer(s):Melody GardotHeitor Pereira

Sem você
Não há vida pra viver
Sem você
Não há vida pra viver, não há

Amor

Se você me ama, por que não me chamas?
Não te escondas no silêncio de uma muda flor
Nessa tarde lua, já se mostra tão nua
Mar e vento, meu tormento, minha solidão

Sob a lua
Luz que é tão sua
Céu aberto acima (?)
Dois amantes na franca luz, nesse mar de amor

Tanto amor

Pra ganhar carinho

(Pra ganhar seu carinho)
Sou seu passarinho
(Sou seu passarinho)
Vou voando bem baixinho, canto pra você

Se você me ama
Por que não me chamas?
No meu ninho aqui sozinho canto sem você

Encantada
Miragem de um nada (de um nada)
Meu deserto a céu aberto aberto pra voar
Mais que nada
'Sayonara' meu amor

Sem você x2
Não há vida vida pra viver, não há
Não há vida
