New Song: “New York & Light”

[audio:http://www.stephenpickering.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/New-York-and-Light-1.mp3]

New York and Light (iPhone/iPad Link) You can download the song if you right click on the link and choose “Save” or “Save As,” and it will download the MP3 file.

So I took the little poem I wrote a couple post’s back “New York & Light” and made it into a song. I had this tune I was working on at the same time, so I applied the words to it. I added a couple more paragraphs for a second verse.

Lyrics:

New York and Light
East Egg above
They dance all night
The Jitterbug.

Their dreams play notes
Her favorite song
Love lines he wrote
She danced along

Chorus:

With eyes like that
That guy could sing
She floats him back
Across the sea.

The city’s moon
It strums their tune.

Verse 2

Long Island Sound
This is the place
It’s where she’s found
Stars light her face.

There’s something there.
Behind her eyes.
Inside her stare
A thousand and one nights.
