Tender Sorrow
Lira Veloso
Bossa Nova
About
An intimate Bossa Nova piece with syncopated nylon-string guitar strumming and soft whispered male vocals gliding over acoustic bass lines and gentle percussion like brushes and pandeiro. Melodic chord progressions in minor keys build a bittersweet nostalgia, enhanced by a evocative guitar solo. Production captures close-miked warmth and natural room reverb for a serene, coastal Rio atmosphere.
Lyrics
Soft evening falls A quiet sigh Memories drift But I leave, who's gonna die? In this room where, where we once dreamed Your shadow lingers Or so it seems Or so it seems The clock ticks slow Hard, heavy, low moments we shared Now come and go A fleeting warm In the cooling air I trace your absence Everywhere This tender sorrow wraps around Lost in the love we never, we never found Bittersweet dreams in the dim light Holding the pieces through the night Oh, the longing pulls me near To what we had Now disappears, appears But I leave, who's gonna die? Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift Memories drift
