Don't Know Why(Jesse Harris)Beanly Songs / Sony / ATV Music Publishing (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, pianoLee Alexander - bassJesse Harris - acoustic guitar, electric guitarDan Rieser - drums
I waited 'til I saw the sunI don't know why I didn't comeI left you by the house of funI don't know why I didn't comeI don't know why I didn't comeWhen I saw the break of dayI wished that I could fly awayInstead of kneeling in the sandCatching teardrops in my handMy heart is drenched in wineBut you'll be on my mindForeverOut across the endless seaI would die in ecstacyBut I'll be a bag of bonesDriving down the road aloneMy heart is drenched in wineBut you'll be on my mindForeverSomething has to make you runI don't know why I didn't comeI feel as empty as a drumI don't know why I didn't comeI don't know why I didn't comeI don't know why I didn't come

Spinning, laughing, dancing toher favorite songA little girl with nothing wrongIs all aloneEyes wide openAlways hoping for the sunAnd she'll sing her song to anyonethat comes alongFragile as a leaf in autumnJust fallin' to the groundWithout a soundCrooked little smile on her faceTells a tale of graceThat's all her ownSpinning, laughing, dancing toher favorite songA little girl with nothing wrongAnd she's all alone
"Cold Cold Heart"I've tried so hard my dear to showThat you're my every dream Yet you're afraid each thing I doIs just some evil scheme A memory from your lonesome past Keeps us so far apartWhy can't I free your doubtful mindAnd melt your cold cold heart Another love before my time Made your heart sad an' blue And so my heart is paying nowFor things I didn't do In anger unkind words are saidThat make the teardrops start Why can't I free your doubtful mindAnd melt your cold cold heartThere was a time when I believedThat you belonged to me But now I know your heart is shackledTo a memory The more I learn to care for you The more we drift apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind And melt your cold cold heart
Feelin' The Same Way
(Lee Alexander)Fumblethumbs Music (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, Wurlitzer electric pianoLee Alexander - bassKevin Breit - acoustic guitar, electric guitarBrian Blade - drums
The sun just slipped its note below my doorAnd I can't hide beneath my sheetsI've read the words before so now I knowThe time has come again for meAnd I'm feelin' the same way all over againFeelin' the same way all over againSingin' the same lines all over againNo matter how much I pretendAnother day that I can't find my headMy feet don't look they're my ownI'll try and find the floor below to standAnd I hope I reach it once againAnd I'm feelin' the same way all over againFeelin' the same way all over againSingin' the same lines all over againNo matter how much I pretendSo many times I wonder where I've goneAnd how I found my way back inI'll look around awhile for something lostMaybe I'll find it in the endAnd I'm feelin' the same way all over againFeelin' the same way all over againSingin' the same lines all over againNo matter how much I pretend
Come Away With Me
(Norah Jones)Muthajones Music (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, pianoLee Alexander - bassJesse Harris - acoustic guitarAdam Levy - electric guitarDan Rieser - drums
Come away with me in the nightCome away with meAnd I will write you a songCome away with me on a busCome away with me where they can't tempt usWith their liesI want to walk with youOn a cloudy dayIn fields where the yellow grass growsknee kighSo won't you try to comeCome away with me and we'll kissOn a mountain topCome away with meAnd I'll never stop loving youAnd I want to wake up with the rainFalling on a tin roofWhile I'm safe there in your armsSo all I ask is for youTo come away with me in the nightCome away with me
Shoot The Moon
(Jesse Harris)Beanly Songs / Sony / ATV Music Publishing (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, pianoLee Alexander - bassJesse Harris - acoustic guitarAdam Levy - electric guitarSam Yehel - Hammond B-3 organBrian Blade - drums
The summer days are gone too soonYou shoot the moonAnd miss completelyAnd now you're left to face the gloomThe empty room that once smelled sweetlyOf all the flowers you plucked if onlyYou knew the reasonWhy you had to each be lonelyWas it just the season?Now the fall is here againYou can't begin to give inIt's all overWhen the snows come rolling throughYou're rolling too with some new loverWill you think of times you've told meThat you knew the reasonWhy we had to each be lonelyIt was just the season
Turn Me On
(John D. Loudermilk)Acuff Rose Music, Inc. (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, pianoLee Alexander - bassAdam Rogers - guitarSam Yahel - Hammond B-3 organDan Rieser - drums
Like a flowerWaiting to bloomLike a lightbulb In a dark room I'm just sitting here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on Like the desert waiting for the rain Like a school kid waiting for the spring Im just sitting here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on My poor heart It's been so dark Since you've been gone After all you're the one who turns me off You're the only one who can turn me back on My hi-fi is waiting for a new tuneMy glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes I'm just sitting here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on
Lonestar

Lonestar where are you out tonight?This feeling I'm trying to fightIt's dark and I think that I wouldgive anythingFor you to shine down on meHow far you are I just don't knowThe distance I'm willing to goI pick up a stone that I cast to the skyHoping for some kind of sign
I've Got To See You Again
(Jesse Harris)Beanly Songs / Sony / ATV Music Publishing (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, pianoLee Alexander - bassJesse Harris - acoustic guitarAdam Levy - electric guitarJenny Scheinman - violinBrian Blade - drums, percussion
Lines on your face don't bother meDown in my chair when you dance over meI can't help myselfI've got to see you againLate in the night when I'm all aloneAnd I look at the clock and I know you're not homeI can't help myselfI've got to see you againI could almost go thereJust to watch you be seenI could almost go thereJust to live in a dreamBut no I won't go for any of those thingsTo not touch your skin is not why I singI can't help myselfI've got to see you againI could almost go thereJust to watch you be seenI could almost go thereJust to live in a dreamNo I won't go to share you with themBut oh even though I know whereyou've beenI can't help myselfI've got to see you again
Painter Song
(Lee Alexander / J.C. Hopkins)Fumblethumbs Music (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, pianoLee Alexander - bassAdam Levy - acoustic guitarRob Burger - accordionBrian Blade - drums
If I were a painterI would paint my reverieIf that's the only way for you to be with meWe'd be there togetherJust like we used to beUnderneath the swirling skies for all to seeAnd I'm dreaming of a placeWhere I could see your faceAnd I think my brush would take me thereBut only ...If I were a painterAnd could paint a memoryI'd climb inside the swirling skies to be with youI'd climb inside the skies to be with you
One Flight Down
(Jesse Harris)Beanly Songs / Sony / ATV Music Publishing (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, pianoLee Alexander - bassJesse Harris - acoustic guitarAdam Levy - electric guitarSam Yahel - Hammond B-3 organJenny Scheinmann - violinDan Riser - drumsArif Mardin - string arrangement
One flight downThere's a song on low And your mind just picked up on the sound Now you know you're wrong Because it drifts like smoke And it's been there playing all along Now you know Now you know The reeds and brass have been weaving Leading into a single note In this place Where your arms unfold Here at last you see your ancient face Now you know Now you know The cadence rolls in broken Plays it over and then goes One flight down There's a song on low And it's been there playing all along Now you know Now you know
Nightingale
(Norah Jones)Muthajones Music (BMI)Norah Jones - vocals, pianoLee Alexander - bassJesse Harris - acoustic guitarAdam Levy - electric guitarBrian Blade - drums
NightingaleSing us a song Of a love that once belonged Nightingale Tell me your tale Was your journey far too long? Does it seem like I'm looking for an answer To a question I can't ask I don't know which way the feather falls Or if I should blow it to the left All the voices that are spinnin' around me Trying to tell me what to say Can I fly right behind you And you can take me away
