There’s a light wind blowing
Along the avenue
The crowd's not slowing
There’s nothing you can do
We’ve reached the final hour
We're moment from the tower
Where love is sworn
We're showered with rice by day
I kneel and bow my head to pray

I don’t know what it's like to be you
You can see that I’m crying too
I'm listening but can't quite hear
Over the road of fear
Let’s reach across the great divide
And lift each other up
The only thing help us now
Is love, it's love, it's love
It's love, it's love

Mm Hm Hm mmm
If we love, listen and learn
We'll hold the peace
We'll earn

Mm-hm hm
Oh oh oh ohh

Mm hmm mmm
Oh ohh ohhh

The daughter of Beatles collaborator Ravi Shankar (her estranged father whom she had little contact with until her adult years), Norah Jones came into her own after studying at Dallas Booker T. Washington School of the Arts. She later spent two years at the University of North Texas' lauded music program in Denton, Texas – alma mater of such diverse music greats as rocker Don Henley and stalwarts Roy Orbison and Pat Boone.

Jones' goal was always to get to New York City, and she succeeded there after years of tough starter music gigs and the almost-cliched waitress jobs. Her debut album Come Away With Me won 5 Grammy Awards for Jones herself, including “Album of the Year”, and “Record of the Year.” Additionally, it won 3 Grammy awards for “Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical,” “Producer of the Year, Non-Classical,” and “Song of the Year,” for collaborators on the album. It has been Certified 10x Multi-Platinum by the RIAA, having sold 10 million albums.
