From the recording Jazz Lovers Society Vol. 2
Fergus Hambleton returns in 2021 with a musical surprise - moving away from his world music and pop background into jazz. And it's a seamless transition as he is a student of music and has assembled a team of phenomenal jazz players to give us authentic and sincere renditions of several jazz standards. The real treat, however, is Fergus's ability to write his own jazz compositions which both compliment the genre and his own voice. - Jaimie Vernon, The Canadian Pop Music Encyclopedia.
Lyrics
A Certain Smile
A certain smile, a certain face
Can lead an unsuspecting heart on a merry chase
A fleeting glance can say so many lovely things
Suddenly you know why my heart sings
*You love a while and when love goes
You try to hide the tears inside with a cheerful pose.
But in the hush of night exactly like a bittersweet refrain
Comes that certain smile to haunt your heart again
(Instrumental interlude and pick up at *.)
You love a while and when love goes,
You try to hide the tears inside with a cheerful pose.
But in the hush of night exactly like a bittersweet refrain
Comes that certain smile to haunt your heart again
