[ele disse uma vez que esta era talvez a sua melhor canção. ela parece estar de acordo. e quem sou eu para os desdizer?]

entre ele e ela, como no céu

"Show me how you do that trick 
The one that makes me scream" she said 
"The one that makes me laugh" she said 
And threw her arms around my neck 
"Show me how you do it 
And I promise you I promise that 
I'll run away with you 
I'll run away with you" 
Spinning on that dizzy edge 
I kissed her face and kissed her head 
And dreamed of all the different ways I had 
To make her glow 
"Why are you so far away?" she said 
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you 
That I'm in love with you" 

You 
Soft and only 
You 
Lost and lonely 
You 
Strange as angels 
Dancing in the deepest oceans 
Twisting in the water 
You're just like a dream 

Daylight licked me into shape 
I must have been asleep for days 
And moving lips to breathe her name 
I opened up my eyes 
And found myself alone alone 
Alone above a raging sea 
That stole the only girl I loved 
And drowned her deep inside of me 

You 
Soft and only 
You 
Lost and lonely 
You 
Just like heaven

não gosto muito de miss melua, acho-a um bocadinho melodramática demais, 

mas a sua voz é ideal para esta melodia simples e lindíssima.

o clip (uma fábula implícita sobre as máscaras que sempre usamos...) é fantástico.

You're beautiful so silently 
It lies beneath a shade of blue 
It struck me so violently 
When I looked at you 

But others pass, the never pause, 
To feel that magic in your hand 
To me you're like a wild rose 
They never understand why 

I cried for you 
When the sky cried for you 
And when you went 
I became a hopeless drifter 
But this life was not for you 
Though I learned from you, 
That beauty need only be a whisper 

I'll cross the sea for a different world, 
With your treasure, a secret for me to hold 

In many years they may forget 
This love of ours or that we met, 
They may not know 
how much you meant to me. 

I cried for you 
And the sky cried for you, 
And when you went 
I became a hopeless drifter. 
But this life was not for you, 
Though I learned from you, 
That beauty need only be a whisper 

Without you now I see, 
How fragile the world can be 
And I know you've gone away 
But in my heart you'll always stay. 

I cried for you 
And the sky cried for you, 
And when you went 
I became a hopeless drifter. 
But this life was not for you, 
Though I learned from you, 
That beauty need only be a whisper 
That beauty need only be a whisper

este grande azul, hoje um standard, foi escrito pela célebre dupla harold arlen & johnny mercer em mil novecentos e quarenta e um, e destinava-se originalmente a ser cantado num filme. teve entretanto dezenas de interpretações e uma das que mais gosto é esta, de miss melua, que tem um arranjo com ênfase especial no contraste entre voz e harmónica e lhe dá um cunho mais azul.

My mamma done told me,
when I was in pigtails,
My mamma done told me, "Hon,
A man is a two-face,
he'll give you the big eye,
and when the sweet talking's done.
A man is a two-face,
a warrisome thing who'll leave you to sing,
The blues in the night."

Now the rains a-fallin',
hear the trains a-callin', "whooee!"
Hear that lonesome whistle
blowin' across the tresle, "whooee!"
a-whooee-ah-whooee, clickety-clack,
comes echoing back,
The blues in the night.

From Natchez to Mobile,
from Memphis to St. Joe
Wherever the four winds blow.
I've been in some big towns
and heard me some big talk,
But there is one thing I know.
A man is a two-face,
a warrisome thing who'll leave you to sing,
The blues in the night.

My mamma done told me,
