Name: My Five Senses
Duration: P00H03M27S
Description: As with 'He Sang like Leonard Cohen' I had an attack of 'oh shit, this is someone else's melody' as I was writing it. But after a lot of rooting around, I couldn't find anything. Someone said 'it sounds like King of the Road' but actually, it doesn't one bit. This was Lisa's favourite song on the album.

As with 'He Sang like Leonard Cohen' I had an attack of 'oh shit, this is someone else's melody' as I was writing it. But after a lot of rooting around, I couldn't find anything. Someone said 'it sounds like King of the Road' but actually, it doesn't one bit. This was Lisa's favourite song on the album.

lyrics

That face in my mind is as clear as a photograph
With each feature sharp and defined
That voice has a sound like an old-fashioned phonograph
So warm with a crackle from time to time
Aromas of jasmine and sandalwood
The scent unique to the house I once thought I could never leave
That touch like a feather of turtle dove
That taste a flavor I savored and knew it was love

And every day, my five senses read to me
Their stories of my past life with you
I can't deny, I smile and cry a tear
A fairy-tale, unreal but true

Aromas of jasmine and sandalwood
The scent unique to the house I once thought I could never leave
That touch like a feather of turtle dove
That taste a flavor I savored and knew it was love

That sense a feeling so tender it had to be love
