Too Blue

WAVES

Here

I could say that I never saw it coming
You all stuck there while I had run off to London
The bombs they fell from the sky like shooting stars
But the only wish they made come true would break our hearts

When I got the call I was sitting the back seat
Thought of those moments that I didn’t know would be the last of all of us
And now you’re gone
I’m lost

It was all of us
I wasn’t scared when it was all of us
You were all people
That I could trust
I’d give my life to you
So we’d be all of us again

The fires burned for days after the bombs exploded
But the fire in my heart never drowned by the ocean
Even now the city picking up it’s broken parts
But it will take longer to fix all these broken hearts 

The tension’s rising across the different countries
Now one knows what comes next after this tragedy
I don’t think I’ll ever be the same
I lost too much all in one day
And now you’re gone 
I’m lost

It was all of us
I wasn’t scared when it was all of us
You were all people
That I could trust
I’d give my life to you
So we’d be all of us again

And if I could
I trade my life for yours in heartbeat
I wouldn’t look back on the time that I’d be missing
I’d focus on life ‘ready lived
I’d give you what I had to give

You were too young and too many
I still question why me and not many
I’ll hold on for you
I’ll hold on for you

It was all of us
I wasn’t scared when it was all of us
You were all people
That I could trust
I’d give my life to you
So we’d be all of us again someday 
Someday
Someday
Someday

All of Us

Tokyo Girl

彼女になってよって
気軽に聞くけれど
あなたがどれだけ本気か見てからね

I’m a Tokyo Tokyo Girl
知ってるでしょ
あなたの憧れてるあの街

Tokyo, Tokyo Girl
I’ve lived in Tokyo
where I was born and raised

Be my girl? You ask me casually
But I’ll trust you if you show sincerity

I’m a little old-fashioned
Need something real if we’re gonna last

I’m a Tokyo Tokyo girl
You know where it is 
The city you’ve dreamed of since you were little 

東京で
生まれ育ったの
Please take good care of me

新宿、原宿、渋谷
浅草、上野、銀座

if you wanna be with me

Know why people fall in love with it
’cause  it’s  the most attractive city in the world

I am a girl from Tokyo 
I am a girl from Tokyo

I’m a Tokyo Tokyo Girl
You know where it is 
The city you’ve dreamed of since you were little 

Tokyo, Tokyo Girl
I’ve lived in Tokyo
where I was born and raised

Tokyo Girl

The way you crushed me with your smile
believe me, I could tell it’s over.
I thought I was prepared, and yet I never dared
content to play the fool.

Sweet undulations of denial—
deceive me like your other lover!

I’ve no right to protest, I made this bloody mess
and now I have to push your pull.

When someone tears our world apart
do we just blame it on the heart?
There’s only so much space and time
that we can fit inside our mind...

You'll never know before you’ve lived,
and having lived it teaches nothing.
We age into knowing less, 
it’s all a bloody mess
that’s why we blame it on the heart.

When someone tears your world apart,
go ahead and blame it on the heart.
There’s only so much space and time
that we can fit inside our mind.

PROGRAM NOTE
Spring Songs for tenor and chamber ensemble or piano is my third song cycle celebrating the seasons. As with the first two, Winter Songs for bass-baritone and Summer Songs for soprano, this cycle contains settings of poems by various American poets.

Whereas both Winter Songs and Summer Songs end with scenes in New York City, Spring Songs begins with New York: a setting of English Sparrows (Washington Square) by Edna St. Vincent Millay, a poem about a scene that takes place in the morning in Greenwich Village, a neighborhood in New York City where Millay lived in the early 1900s. The second movement is a setting of April 5, 1974 by Richard Wilbur, a poem Wilbur wrote in honor of Robert Frost’s one-hundredth birthday, and I interpret as being about overcoming self-doubt through wisdom, and about understanding the change of seasons, but also a change of mind. The third movement, Done With by Ann Stanford, I interpret to be about death and rebirth. Stanford symbolizes this by a house being torn down and the ground paved over, the now suffocated plant life yearning to break through. The Widow’s Lament in Springtime, the fourth movement, is a setting of a poem by William Carlos Williams. I interpret this poem as a modernist, pastoral elegy that uses images of nature to lament the death of a loved one. The final movement, a setting of the poem Spring Rain by Sara Teasdale, is about a happy memory of a lover brought about by an evening thunderstorm.

Spring Songs was commissioned by Rick Teller for the American Modern Ensemble.
