Sweet Colleens - May I Suggest

Текст с Bandcamp’а: “We had hoped to include an a capella tune on this record but had yet to find the right song. Then, just as we were wrapping up recording, Wolf came across Susan Werner’s “May I Suggest”. There was no question in our minds that this was the one, and we managed to get it arranged and recorded under the deadline. Thanks to Susan for giving us her blessing to record this beautiful song. May I suggest May I suggest to you May I suggest this is the best part of your life May I suggest This time is blessed for you This time is blessed and shining almost blinding bright Just turn your head And you’ll begin to see The thousand reasons that were just beyond your sight The reasons why Why I suggest to you Why I suggest this is the best part of your life There is a world That’s been addressed to you Addressed to you, intended only for your eyes A secret world A treasure chest to you Of private scenes and brilliant dreams that mesmerize A tender lover’s touch A tiny baby’s hands The million stars that fill the turning sky at night Oh I suggest Oh I suggest to you Oh I suggest this is the best part of your life There is a hope That’s been expressed in you The hope of seven generations, maybe more And this is the faith That they invest in you It’s that you’ll do one better than was done before Inside you know Inside you understand Inside you know what’s yours to finally set right And I suggest And I suggest to you And I suggest this is the best part of your life This is a song Comes from the west to you Comes from the west, comes from the slowly setting sun This is a song With a request of you To see how very short the endless days will run And when they’re gone And when the dark descends Oh we’d give anything for one more hour of light May I suggest May I suggest to you May I suggest this is the best part of your life from Closer to the Sky, released January 1, 2013 Words & music © 2001 Susan Werner — Frank Chance Music (ASCAP) Arranged by Jeremy Greenhouse, 2012“
