Ben Harper is one of my favorite singer/songwriters. It’s a joy to listen to him explore all sorts of musical roots and genres as he seeks a good song – which he once said was really what it is all about – a good emotional song. I was listening to him this morning and had hit the ITunes Genius button and the Genius decided to play “If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again” Oh yeah, that was an emotional song. Thirty minutes and three hankies later, I can finish posting this great separates from the new Royal Blue Collection which will be released on the 13th and share a more cheerful Ben Harper song. Okay, it doesnt’ start out cheerful, but it gets there.
Won’t you sing me the blues
Won’t you sing me the blues
Sing me something my heart can use
Misery loves a symphony
Does your face, your pretty face get lost in a crowd?
And you say no one’s there
To hear you cry out loud
What will you do, Suzie Blue?
Where did you learn to do that so well?
Where did you learn to do that so well?
I guess that would be like kiss and tell
If it’s a secret, why did you show me?
But your far away from the love you used to hold,
don’t sit and watch your self grow old
The day is new, Suzie Blue
The day is new, Suzie Blue
Real life has let you down
Real life has let you down
Someone stripped the jewel from your crown
Everybody owes somebody something
Kissing from heaven in your arms
And we’ll make love to the memories
They will always see us through, Suzie Blue
The day is new, Suzie Blue
The day is new, Suzie Blue
