Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See how he looks
Wait till you hear him laugh
Painters of paintings
Writers of books
Never could tell the half
The warmth of his glance
Pensive and sweet and wise
All of it lovely
All of it thrilling
I'll never be willing to free him
When you see him
You won't believe your eyes
You won't believe your eyes

I'll tell ya. Not the most sophisticated of comments but De-Phazz has always had the chops. And of course the elegant Lady of Class, Ella cannot be forgotten. Excellent tribute to a blending of historical genres and talent.

'It sounds like Ella could have recorded this last week. Beautiful!
