James

(Carly Simon/Mike Mainieri)

James,

Your voice is like the water

When I lift this shell to my ear

I can hear you pourin' out your heart to me

James,

The beauty of your voice

Lifts us from sadness

James,

Let us become like water together

Sing to me

Sit on the edge of my bed as when we

First spent nights together

Your body wrapped around your guitar

Let the music speak for your heart

Let them combine like water and sand

Let them meet the air like drops of rain

And bring us together, once again

Carly Simon James
