Sonny Clark - The Breeze And I lyrics

rate me

<b>The Breeze And I</b> by <i>Sonny Clark</i><br />

The breeze and I are saying with a sigh

That you no longer care;

The breeze and I are whispering goodbye

To dreams we used to share.

Ours was a love song

That seemed constant as the moon,

Ending in a strange, mournful tune;

And all about me,

They know you have departed without me

And we wonder why,

The breeze and I

The breeze andI

The original tune, "Andaluza," was part of the

1929 (?) "Andalucia Suite" by Cuban composer Lecuona.

Stillman wrote the lyrics later. Composer and Lyricist

met only once. Stillman said: "Lecuona didn't speak

English and I didn't speak Spanish. We had a very

short conversation."
