My Funny Valentine (Rudy Van Gelder Remaster 2007)

by Miles Davis

Lyrics
My funny valentine, sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable, un-photographable
Yet you're my favorite work of art
Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak

Are you smart?
Don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay, little valentine, stay!
Each day is Valentine's Day
Don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay, little valentine, stay!
Each day is Valentine's Day

About "My Funny Valentine (Rudy Van Gelder Remaster 2007)"

The trumpet here is a bruised velvet curtain, parting slowly to reveal a tender ache. Rudy Van Gelder's remaster sharpens the paradox: a love song that feels like goodbye. Each phrase hangs in the air, beautiful and slightly broken, refusing to resolve.
