Hive Open Mic Challenge 132: Woman, Life, Freedom She - Elvis Costello (Violin and Piano Cover)

in Hive Open Mic2 years ago (edited)

When I thought about the theme for this week's challenge "Woman, Love, Freedom" this song immediately came to my mind.
This song describes womanhood in such a romantic way. Everything a woman is, and what we mean to those around us.
Women are truly remarkable. Not only do we resemble love and freedom but also strength, intelligence, compassion, kindness, generosity to only name a few.
Women resemble everything the world needs more of.

I asked my talented friend and colleague, Serena Domingo to record this song with me. She is an incredible woman herself and I look up to her. I could think of no one else more appropriate to perform this song with me.

I hope you enjoy it as much as we have recording it.

She may be the face I can't forget
A trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
She may be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day
She may be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into a Heaven or a Hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
A smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell
She, who always seems so happy in a crowd
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud
No one's allowed to see them when they cry
She may be the love that cannot hope to last
May come to me from shadows of the past
That I remember 'til the day I die
She may be the reason I survive
The why and wherefore I'm alive
The one I'll care for through the rough and ready years
Me, I'll take her laughter and her tears
And make them all my souvenirs
For where she goes I've got to be
The meaning of my life is
She, she
Oh, she

Thanks Jasper. Serena and I are both music teachers at our school☺️ we are also both moms of twins and thought maybe that the reason we played it so fast😄
