Come Away With Me.....


Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies
I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come
Come away with me and we'll talk
On a mountain top
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me ....



A song i love....it calms me down n Norah Jones's is an absolute fav...in this era of blaring noises posing as music...a refreshing change.

Parineeta

Brishti jhor-jhor porche
Ratriu anek holo
Aajke ki ashbe na..?
Shobuj ronger sharee porechi
Tumar priyo chingdi-maach baniyechi
Aar mathai shei laal tip
Phone ta beje uthol
''Ki?deri hobe..?anek kaaj office?''
hmm....
Tumar ghor,tumar shontaan,tumari apekha
Jeeboner protita rong sudhu tumar jonyo..
Brishti kichu thaamche ekhoni
Amaar kintu khoob khide peyeche
Khete khete bhaablaam
Chingdi ekdom bhaalo lage na amaar
Kaalke eelish baanabo
Amaar priyo...
