Ander Contrib, Session 42


Vanessa's song to Ander, after their dream encounter.
in some nondescript Shadow...
singing with a cheap band...
using notes that Ander wrote long ago as the arrangement.
(by Fiona Apple)


You move like honey
in my dream last night

Yeah, some old fires were burning

You came near to me
and you endeared to me
but you couldn't quite discern me

does that scare you?
let you run away

but your heart will not oblige you

you'll remember me
like a melody
Yeah, I haunt the world inside you
and my big secret, gonna win you over...

slow like honey, heavy with mood

I let you see me
covet your regard
I'll invade your demeanor

and you'll yield to me
like a scent in the breeze
and you'll wonder what it is about me
it is my big secret, keeping you comin'...
slow like honey, heavy with mood

but dreams can be deceiveing
like faces are two hearts
they serve for sweet relieving,

... and fantasy,
... and reality
... life too far apart

so I strech myself apart like a bridge
and I pull you to the end

you stand there waiting
trying to attain
the end to satify the story

shall I release you
must I relesae you?

as I rise to meet my glory
but my big secret
gonna hover over your life
gonna keep you reaching and,
I', gone like yesterday
when I'm high like heaven
when I'm strong like music
'cause I'm slow like honey and heavy with mood.
