INTRODUCTION

인디락밴드 Velour 100 출신의 여성 싱어송라이터 Rosie Thomas의 2005년 신작. 본 앨범은 피아노와 기타, 그리고 실로폰 중심의 사운듣를 보여주고 있다. 이것은 나른하고 게으르지만 가끔씩 깨질것 같은 사운드를 보여주기도 하며 여러 영화의 사운드트랙에서 스트링 어레인지를 담당했던 Josh Myers가 참여하였고 한국에서도 인기가 높은 포크 ....

PRETTY DRESS

Rosie Thomas

Put your pretty dress on
it's time for you to go to the dance
tie your hair in ribbons and lace
and wear pearls round your neck
And all the pretty princes will see you
All the pretty princes will see you
Some day
Some day

Put your red boots on
it's time for you to walk home from school
every one will laugh
they'll point fingers at you
they'll be cruel
but cover up your ears and don't listen
because you'll know much better than them
some day
some day

and they'll wave to you
and they'll wave to you

put your red coat on
and walk with a light in the woods
if it gets dark dont get scared
there's so much waiting for you
cover up your tears and dont show them
cause you'll know much better than them
some day
some day

and they'll wave to you
and they'll wave to you
and they'll wave to you
and they'll wave to you

cause they don't see you like i see you
if they did, they'd see
the nice litte girl whose
grown up to become homecoming queen

put your pretty dress on
put your red boots on

and they'll wave to you
and they'll wave to you
and we'll wave to you
and we'll wave to you

put your pretty dress on
put your red boots on
put your red coat on
put your pretty dress on
put your pretty dress on
put your red coat on
put your red boots on
put you pretty dress

LOOSE ENDS

Rosie Thomas

She's like a sweater, old and used
Tossed and overworn too many times through
And she used to look so bright
All her seams were tightly tied

She's like a sweater that's just worn out
Fading, coffee stained, and out of style
And she's just about to run
Before her stitches come undone

She's gonna pack her bags & leave
No more loose, unravelled seams
She is young & she still has her confidence
And it's not too late to tie up those loose ends

She's like a fire in the rain
His words will damp her eyes & heat her veins
And the love she thought she found was just another
Hand-me-down of dwindled grace

She's gonna pack her bags & leave
No more loose, unravelled seams
She is young & she still has her confidence
And it's not too late to tie up those loose ends

She's found a refuge for her face
While dividing her unfortunate displace
Now she stands too high for them to ring her dry
She's found her way

She's gonna pack her bags & leave
No more loose, unravelled seams
She is young & she still has her confidence
And it's not too late to tie up those loose ends

IN DON'T MATTER TO THE SUN

Say what you want to say
Play this game your way
It's over anyway
You didn't give it up for love

Take what you want to take
Take back the words you'll say
They never mattered anyway
You didn't give it up for love
No you didn't give, give it up for love

When I look through the photographs
And I see the smile on your face
I remember how you used to feel
And I see how much has changed

Say what you want to say
I'll carry on the same
Maybe you'll look back someday
You didn't give it up for love
No you didn't give, give it up for love

When I look through the photographs
And I see the smile on your face
I remember how you used to feel
And I see how much has changed

When I look through the photographs
And I see the smile on your face
I remember how you used to feel
And I see how much has changed

Say what you want to say
Play this game your way
You will know someday
You didn't give it up for love
No you didn't give, give it up for love
No you didn't give, give it up for love
