come into my arms - november ultra

Stephen Sondheim is amazing. Period. "Not While I'm Around" is one of my absolute favorite songs from the musical (and film adaptation), "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street." The song is haunting, reassuring, and terrifying -- all at the same time.

Here is my ode to this beautiful masterpiece. Thank you, Mr. Sondheim.

Not While I'm Around (From the Musical, "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street")

Dido - Here With Me (Live Acoustic)

The song "Moon River" by Audrey Hepburn in the movie "Breakfast At Tiffany's".

Moon River - Audrey Hepburn

A retro-modern love letter to sunshine harmonies and kaleidoscopic pop. Golden Airwaves glides from beach-bright mornings to neon boardwalk midnights.

[verse 1]
You’re like a Sunday afternoon 
Etta James loud just me and you 
Sleeping in your living room
Nothing more we need to do 

[verse 2]
You’re like a perfect silver moon 
Like Sinatra and the blues 
The morning always comes to soon 
Still there when the lights just streaming through 

[chorus]
Everything’s just something with you 
And nothings somehow something with you 
I’m no one but I’m someone to you
It’s just enough to know I’m perfect for you 
Perfect for you 

[verse 2]
You’re like a sunset over Sahara dunes
Frank ocean and a gorgeous view
The pause in a month long monsoon
You’re always what I need it’s always you 

[chorus]
Everything’s just something with you 
And nothings somehow something with you 
I’m no one but I’m someone to you
It’s just enough to know I’m perfect for you 
Perfect for you

[verse 3]
You’re like a memory of my favourite cartoon
Sounds like I’ve got a friend in you
Magic like the first sight of a balloon
One I tell my childhood secrets to

[chorus]
Everything’s just something with you 
And nothings somehow something with you 
I’m no one but I’m someone to you
It’s just enough to know I’m perfect for you 
Perfect for you

[verse 4 - with reference to chorus]
You’re like a Sunday afternoon 
Etta James loud just me and you 
Sleeping in your living room
It’s just enough to know I’m perfect for you 
Perfect for you
