A Stranger's Smile at the Festival
Folk song with a laid-back 114 BPM groove: a looping acoustic guitar strum over a minimal electronic beat and a round bass, with a raspy, slurred male voice. Wistful and hypnotic, sung in English, about a summer festival and a stranger's smile he cannot forget.
Lyrics
The Ferris wheel was turning slow.Colored lights began to glow.Dusty boots and paper cups.Waiting for the sun to shut.But I remember your smile.It stayed for a while.I remember your smile.Across the grassy aisle.A fiddle played a crooked tune.Underneath a heavy moon.I saw you by the lemonade.In the center of the big parade.But I remember your smile.It stayed for a while.I remember your smile.Across the grassy aisle.The trucks are packed and headed home.The field is quiet, left alone.I didn't even ask your name.But nothing feels the same.But I remember your smile.It stayed for a while.I remember your smile.Across the grassy aisle.
