Something Different

Something Different - Katrina Lenk/Tony Shalhoub

Written by：David Yazbek

Is this a hymn

Is this a love song

Something ancient by a poet

Maybe Hafiz maybe Rumi

Is he singing about two hearts searching in the darkness

Or is he singing about fishing

The tune seems sad but are the words sad

What's he saying

Is he praying

And why do the words get to me

Is he lonely maybe reaching out for someone

Look at me maybe I'm the one who's fishing

Every day you stare to the west to the south

You can see for miles but things never change

Then honey in your ears spice in your mouth

Nothing's as surprising as the taste of something strange

And here's this man

Right here beside me

Kind of deep and kind of cute

In his Sergeant Pepper suit

Is this my sheikh

Is this my Omar Sharif

Well I know it's something different

Itgara

Who is this man right here beside me

Closer by an inch or two my cheek would touch his ear

What is he thinking What does he wish for

Is he singing about wishing

Something new I've never seen before

Through these walls I build these gates I protect

Something new I didn't notice I was hoping for

Nothing is as beautiful as something that you don't expect

Look at those hands

Those are not young hands

But they move like they are swimming through the music

Through the music

And I don't know what I feel

And I don't know what I know

All I know is I feel something different

Itgara

He makes me feel something different
