Hive Music Festival Week N° 179 round 2 - "The shadow of your smile" cover song by @esthersanchez

¡Hola, estimados amigos! Espero de corazón se encuentren bien. Esta semana agradecidos por las bendiciones del cielo y poder compartir una vez con ustedes.

Para esta vuelta compartiré una canción muy linda. Se trata de un clásico del año 65, compuesto por Johnny Mandel y escrito por Paul Francis Webster. Popularizada por Tony Bennett e interpretada por grandes cantantes como Frank Sinatra.

Su letra, a pesar de ser corta, lleva en sí un hermoso mensaje de amor en el que se resalta la nostalgia y el hecho de lo perdurable de los recuerdos de un ser querido a pesar del transcurrir del tiempo y de que esto pueda llegar a ser doloroso.

Para hacerla estuvo, como es costumbre, mi compañero Hive account@orlandogonzalez, en la guitarra. Espero realmente que la disfruten, por acá les dejo la letra:

Letra:

The shadow of your smile When you are gone
Will color all my dreams And light the dawn
Look into my eyes My love and see
All the lovely things You are to me

Our wistful little star Was far too high
A teardrop kissed your lips And so did I

Now when I remember spring
All the joy that love can bring I will be remembering
The shadow of your smile

¡Hasta la próxima canción!

ENGLISH VERSION:

Hello, dear friends! I sincerely hope you are all doing well. This week, I am grateful for the blessings from above and for the chance to share with you once again.

This time, I’d like to share a very beautiful song. It’s a classic from 65, composed by Johnny Mandel and written by Paul Francis Webster. It was made famous by Tony Bennett and performed by great singers like Frank Sinatra.

Its lyrics, though short, carry a beautiful message of love that highlights nostalgia and the enduring nature of memories of a loved one, despite the passage of time and the fact that this can be painful.

As usual, my partner Hive account@orlandogonzalez joined me on guitar. I really hope you enjoy it; here are the lyrics:

Lyrics:

The shadow of your smile When you are gone
Will color all my dreams And light the dawn
Look into my eyes My love and see
All the lovely things You are to me

Our wistful little star Was far too high
A teardrop kissed your lips And so did I

Now when I remember spring
All the joy that love can bring I will be remembering
The shadow of your smile

See you next song!
