Let you be

about

To end the record I wanted a song a little bit more cheerful than the one before, who talks about music.

This one was written around 2014-2015 as I was playing with a gypsy jazz band called swing high. We used to play a lot for the dancer and I had my time as a lindy hop dancer also so I really wanted to put the feeling you can get by playing for the dancer or by dancing into a song,

I hope it feels that way.

lyrics

Music ain’t wrong or right
It is colors in your sight
Things that the world can tell
A trip who goes just well
A love who knows no boundaries
Someone who gives more than he is

Blowing into his horns
Or having his drums all thorn
Those cats are giving their best
So the music gets no rest
Some Swing as the soundtrack of their life
They smile and say to their wives

Just let you be
And Dance with me
The music act on you
The way it should

Tears can be joyful
Even sadness can be cool
Emotions ruled by the show
With no pain nor sorrow
Music as a therapy
In it our souls act freely

Anything must stop
This song as reach its top
The lights start to fade
Proud like the ace of spades….
We leave it on your way
While the music…..
Goes away!
