Текст песни Alone with Nina Simone - John Peter and His Collaborators

It ain't getting any better
It's getting harder not to lie
I've read all your letters
Some of them made me cry

I told you that I'm dying with the living
I told you that I've come to love the hate
You never ask me how I'm doing
Consumed by your war of late

I live almost by myself now under a falling star
Alone with Nina Simone
And a healing scar

My room it has two windows
Where the sun shines through
You said I could not fool the prophet
But who's kidding who?

Forgiveness, came to you of necessity
It always left me in the dark
I can no longer control the waters
And must learn to swim like a shark

I live almost by myself now in the Lonely Avenue
Alone with Nina Simone
And redemption too

Soon I can live freely
While you must be on your guard
I can live my life lightly
While you must pretend to die hard

You'll still be dying with the living
You'll still be loving the hate
No one ask you how you're doing
Your world become small and desolate

I live almost by myself now in Fata Morgana
Alone with Nina Simone
And piano

Now you know almost where I'm living
But you'll never get how I survive
Nina was not that forgiving
When she was alive
