Inga Swearingen - The Nearness Of You

C:a 56 minuter in i programmet sjunger Inga The Nearness Of You.

It's not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me
O, no it's just the nearness of you

It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation
O, no it's just the nearness of you

When you're in my arms
And I feel you so close to me
All of my wildest dreams come true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night
The nearness of you

Your smile lifts from your lips to your cheeks
And glistens deep in your loving eyes
It takes me where I'm grateful
Reminds me of everything
You say to me with your beautiful simple smile

Inga Swearingen - Indian Summer

med Jeff Miley guitar, Dylan Johnson bass, Darrell Voss drums och Britta Swearingen vocals & percussion. Text och musik Inga Swearingen.

Yellow sun come down
And brown the California hills
Bring on this long Indian Summer

The butterflies, the crickets chirp
I close my eyes and set aside my work
This late harvest, this long Indian Summer

September, October, November you can see
Warm world, warm world offer prints guaranteed
So keep this dream
Living responsibly
Singing desire to be

First rain of the year
I can hear it on the window-pane
Keeps me inside to find words
To describe you

You changed the world quietly
You live what you believe
How I love you this long Indian Summer

Inga Swearingen - April Afternoon

Inga Swearingen har en så underbar röst och så ser hon alltid så glad ut. Hon komponerar och arrangerar sitt material.

An April afternoon the wind is carrying a tune
The grass on the hill-side is rippling like the waters of the sea
Moving all the branches on a tree
Blooms of jasmine flower perfume the air
I imagine kissing your dark hair
I remember you...
Blew straight into my heart like the wind through my window
I danced with the breeze in my arms
The breeze in my arms
Joy is our song while the days grow long
And the birds sing measureless music
And the dark December is gone
And it's late at night and later still
And I'm quiet enough to feel you here with me
Last night I dreamed you older than you are
It was beautiful and sad to me
'Cause I want you here for ever
No I don't want you to leave
Your hands so strong and beautifully calm
Will allways be there to catch me when I fall

Don't the moon look lonesome shinin' thru the trees

Don't the moon look lonesome shinin' thru the trees?
Don't the moon look lonesome shinin' thru the trees?
Dont' your arms look lonesome when your baby packs up to leave?

Well I'm going upon the mountain to call that baby of mine
Going upon the mountain to call that baby of mine
Something tells for me he's not coming back this time

We're going up to the country - can't take you
Going up to the country - can't take you
Ain't nothing up there that a man like you can do.

He's got a face like a fish
Shape like a frog
When he loves me I holler oh, Hot Dog...
Love that man...
I love that man...
I love that man better than I do myself
