Don't Know Why (Norah Jones cover)
Comment Share
One of my fave Norah Jones songs - it's sultry and oh-so-smooth. Of course, my version doesnt come near Norah's stellar version, but I try ;) Please excuse the poor sound quality (esp the higher notes) - Im limited by my humble headset of a mic :(

Jenny loves to sing alone and at church, she sometimes sings in public but gets nervous. She has been trained at a music school called Jaanz but has not been attending since the start of 2005 due to a recent move overseas. She is, essentially a singer, but loves writing lyrics, and hopes one day, when she knows how to compose melodies, she can write full songs that can be called her own :)

Story behind the song
The pure smoothness of the sound and bare naked percussion, highlighted by Norah Jone's beautiful and earthy voice was what made me fall in love with this track, and compelled me to sing it.
Lyrics
I waited 'til I saw the sun I don't know why I didn't come I left you by the house of fun I don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come When I saw the break of day I wished that I could fly away Instead of kneeling in the sand Catching teardrops in my hand My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind Forever Out across the endless sea I would die in ecstasy But I'll be a bag of bones Driving down the road along My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind Forever Something has to make you run I don't know why I didn't come I feel as empty as a drum I don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come
