I feel like 'Next To Me' is a great introduction because it's a simple song that has a simple message for me. I wanted to introduce something that lyrically I'm proud of and introduces me both as an artist and as a writer. ↗

We started very slow in America. It was small acoustic shows. We played places like Los Angeles, New York and Chicago and everywhere there has been a great reaction. It has been really lovely. They listen to the lyrics and the melody over there and the reaction has been fantastic. ↗

I have been around for a long, long time. I didn't make it 'til I was older. I went through the period when women were not getting signed, particularly if you were writing songs that were lyrically propelled. ↗

روح روز تابستانی و نفسِ گل سرخی، تابستان اما سپری شده است و موسم گل‌ به آخر رسیده است کجا رفته‌اند؟ که می‌داند، که می‌داند. خون قلب منی و جان آرامشی. قلب من امّا سرد است و جانم به سیاهی در نشسته است. کجایی تو ای یار؟ که می‌داند، که می‌داند. امید سالیان منی و آفتاب برف‌های زمستانم. سال‌ها اما زیر آسمانی ابر اندود به پایان رسیده است. کجا یکدیگر را باز خواهیم یافت؟ که می‌داند، که می‌داند ↗

— Paul Laurence Dunbar
