Those Sweet Words

(Lee Alexander/Richard Julian)

What did you say
I know I saw you saying it
My ears won't stop ringing
Long enough to hear
Those sweet words
What did you say

And now the day
The hour hand has spun
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
'Cause a heavy moon was keeping you 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 appear

What did you say
I know I saw you saying it
My ears won't stop ringing
Long enough to hear
Those sweet words
And your simple melody

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

Beautiful. I would say those sweet words from the highest of mountains.I want to hear her say them so bad - i know one day she will.

First I saw the video, I did not like that much. After that when I started listening this album this song did not make me listen any other song for a long time! Its like a lover is in dreamy state. The happiness this person got is making them to feel dizzy, mushy, a very very sappy kind of romantic. Also the way this person missed love of their life, they are pretty sure that the love has felt same way. An extremely romantic number ~ love does not make us blind, it makes us dreamy.

How can her voice be so beautiful? And her lyrics so deep?

..plus I just felt a little sting of deep emotion in my heart, Norah sings "The Sweet Words" so beautifully - Amen.

Today I FOUND "Those sweet words"...you know all the songs here are so wonderful, so one song I just have to listen "a million times", before I go to the next and this song´s lyrics and melody is absolutely BEAUTIFUL..And as a "home-playing" guitarrist I love hearing ALL the instruments clearly at the same time, which you do here, guitar, bass and piano.
