Carly Simon ~ We're So Close


(carly simon) I've lived in all of the houses he's built The one in the air The one underground The one on the water The one in the sand He says: it doesn't matter how we live He says: it doesn't matter where we live We're so close we can dispense with houses We don't need a home at all It's come to be a habit with me to dine alone You're never home And the evenings end so early He says: we can be close from afar He says: the closest people always are We're so close that in our separation, There's no distance at all. Sometimes i gout to the car, Turn on the headlights Intending to leave- Sometimes i need to hear the words, My imagination's not as strong as you'd believe- But i've talked to you; You haven't listened at all. I've said i'm numb, I can't even cry, I'm stuck with acting out a part. He says: what do words ever reveal? He says: in speaking one can be so false- We're so close we have a silent language, We don't need words at all. There's a husky voice That speaks to me in the dark And on the phone from studios And westside bars, Through tunnels of long distance. He says: we're beyond flowers He says: we're beyond compliments- We're so close we can dispense with love We don't need love at all. more free lyrics

(carly simon)

I've lived in all of the houses he's built
The one in the air
The one underground
The one on the water
The one in the sand
He says: it doesn't matter how we live
He says: it doesn't matter where we live
We're so close we can dispense with houses
We don't need a home at all

It's come to be a habit with me to dine alone
You're never home
And the evenings end so early
He says: we can be close from afar
He says: the closest people always are
We're so close that in our separation,
There's no distance at all.

Sometimes i gout to the car,
Turn on the headlights
Intending to leave-
Sometimes i need to hear the words,
My imagination's not as strong as you'd believe-
But i've talked to you;
You haven't listened at all.
I've said i'm numb,
I can't even cry,
I'm stuck with acting out a part.
He says: what do words ever reveal?
He says: in speaking one can be so false-
We're so close we have a silent language,
We don't need words at all.

There's a husky voice
That speaks to me in the dark
And on the phone from studios
And westside bars,
Through tunnels of long distance.
He says: we're beyond flowers
He says: we're beyond compliments-
We're so close we can dispense with love
We don't need love at all.

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
