Norah Jones - a voice like honey

I love Norah Jones's music because her voice is like butter or honey.
Here are three of her songs to listen to.



"I wouldn't need you"

If I touched myself the way you touched me
If I could hold myself the way you held me
Then I wouldn't need you, no, I wouldn't need you
No, I wouldn't need you to love me

If I could replace the things you gave me
If I could see my face without the tragedy
Then I wouldn't need you, no, I wouldn't need you
No, I wouldn't need you to love me

But I do so come back, come back

If you could see the way I act when I'm alone
If you could hear my voice crack over the phone
Then you'd know I need you, oh, you'd know I need you
Oh, you'd know I need you to love me

by Norah Jones


"I've got to see you again"

Lines on your face don't bother me
Down in my chair when you dance over me
I can't help myself
I've got to see you again

Late in the night when I'm all alone
And I look at the clock and I know you're not home
I can't help myself

I've got to see you again
I could almost go there
Just to watch you be seen
I could almost go there
Just to live in a dream

But no I won't go for any of those things
To not touch your skin is not why I sing
I can't help myself 
I've got to see you again

I could almost go there
Just to watch you be seen
I could almost go there
Just to live in a dream

No I won't go to share you with them
But oh! even though I know where you've been
I can't help myself
I've got to see you again
Oh, I can't help myself
I've got to see you again

By Jesse Harris for Norah Jones


"Moon Song"

Want to find out where the moon goes
When it leaves the western sky
And night dissolves again to morning
Azure turns to gold
Azure turns to gold

Gonna sleep with one eye open
Gonna keep the shades half drawn
Nearly silent dressed in shadows
Lines and colors fall
Lines and colors fall

Gonna watch her through the window
Just as I watched you before
Smile knows but just won't tell me
I just watch her go
I just watch her go

Now I know just where the moon goes
When it leaves the western sky
And night dissolves again to morning
The moon is in your eyes
The moon is in your eyes
The moon is in your eyes
The moon is in your eyes
