Kris Bowers & Julia Easterlin - Sing to the Moon

奇遇なこともあるもので、Kris Bowers を辿ってるとこの歌に出会った。最近、聞いていたのだよ。つぐめの最近のお気に入りだということで、新レパとしてこないだ披露していた。その時は・・・ふーんという感じだったのだけど、こうして原曲に出会ってみるとまぁ彼女の言うことも頷けるかなぁ・・・・と思った。
　なんともアメリカ風でなく、アフリカ風のアーシーさで不思議な魅力のある歌だ。

LAURA MVULA LYRICS

"Sing To The Moon"
Hey there you, shattered in a thousand pieces
Weeping in the darkest nights
Hey there you, try to stand up on your own two feet
And stumble into the sky
When the lights go out and you're on your own
How you're gonna make it through till the morning sun'
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the time
Hey there you, looking for a brighter season
Need to lay your burden down
Hey there you, drowning in a hopeless feeling
Buried under deeper ground
When the lights go out it's a waiting game
Never gonna see a day when your world will change
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the time
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, lead you to the other side
Sing to the moon and the stars will shine
Over you, heaven's gonna turn the time
