Thoughts can paint a picture Dreams can reach a star Some no matter where you are If you think of me And I am thinking too You will know that I love you Think of me I'll promise too, I'll think of you Days are long Love is so strong What can I do? You're in my heart, darling Though we're apart, Only dear, never fear That I shall heal you In my dreams I see a face sleep can't erase Off with me Faith can restore life as before 'Til that day when I am with you again Think of me I'll promise to

I have a flower for you to wear It is a flower so sweet and fair Never a garden it knew Never the sun, never the dew It never looked at the blue sky This flower I give to you cannot die You may throw it away You may tear it apart 'Tis not a flower, 'tis my heart

Is this just a run around? Should I keep my feet right on the ground? Paying no attention to your charms When you hold me closer in your arms Is this just another line I could find in any Valentine? Are you working with the moon above? And in love? If so, you're doing fine Is this just a run around? Or can it be you are mine? All mine? Or can it be you are mine?

The nearest thing to you, sweet as you are The nearest thing to you is a lovely star When night draws near you both appear Loving you so much But, like a star, you are never meant to touch The dearest thing to me, would be our love So, must you always be like a star above? Why must you stay out of reach? Oh, why can’t I teach your heart to love me too? Let me be the nearest thing to you

Throughout the 1940s, songwriter and pianist Bill Vuono would get together with friends on occasion to record songs of his. These songs, often viewed as timeless for friends and family, wouldn't make it far beyond that circle, staying there until 70 years later when Bill's daughter Rachel Jensen passed on 78s of the aforementioned recordings to me (Jake Bellissimo), her grandchild.

When Drunk With Love Records was started I had already been holding onto these recordings for a few years with the intent to release them when the time felt right. I sprinkled bits and pieces into live shows and on my own albums before curating this album of 9 songs from the 1.5 hours worth of music I received. Bill was the last person in my family to write music and, though I never met him, I've always felt connected to these songs.

3 years after starting DWL, it now feels right. From the bottom of my heart, I hope you enjoy these songs that I think mean so much.

(Thank you as well to the wonderful musicians/friends who contributed the covers and interpretations that follow the original recordings)
