What do you do with a broken heart? Who was holding it when it slipped and shattered? Look at this rainbow around my feet Shards of the sum of the somethings that mattered. In dreams you may dream of the dreams mislaid I was making plans when the world shook and shifted Glittering fragments await my brush Picking the pieces apart and uplifted Marvel of polish and patina Time suspended now, this moment lingers Sorting these pebbles of rain and rust Holding this life in my uncertain fingers In dreams you may dream of the dreams that stayed I am holding space for my grief sweet and sacred Glittering memories await my gaze Shining like gems in the dark, still unfaded Palettes of pathos and empathy Rearranging life in new paths and patterns Drawing a lantern with every breath Breathing new light into uncharted caverns In dreams you may dream of the dreams to come I am forging my fate in this life I’ve been gifted Glittering moments await me still Gathering glass into art, life unscripted

8.	David Restivo Trio - Bittersweet Goodbye feat. Fawn Fritzen 04:10	lyrics	buy track
Once you held my eyes, I held my breath And all was still and I knew that until you said you loved me Nothing in the world could break the spell that you had cast And yet it couldn’t last another day So now when you are far Still I hear your call But there are only walls I can’t find the door that opens to you You have taken half my heartbeat left behind a sigh, I Sink into this bittersweet goodbye Once you held your heart wide open Courage in the wounds and How I longed to sooth that sweet confusion Nothing in the world could solve this reckless situation Nothing for us but to bless the day And even though we knew What we’d have to do The writing on the wall Didn’t tell us how to be unbroken You have taken half my heartbeat left behind a sigh, I Sink into this bittersweet goodbye That moment when you saw my soul Has coloured all my life I sink into this slow and golden Bittersweet goodbye

about

Spanning a lifetime of travels and tribulations, this album explores the transitivity of home in all its forms. With each track, Restivo illustrates his journey through a diverse landscape of food, language, and culture, all the while discovering how these elements have come together to form his own sense of self. As expertly crafted as they are distinct, these works will have you flying over the Northumberland Strait one minute and dancing through the streets of Sicily the next.

“Train to Catania” pulls us in with soothing, rolling harmonies that blend together as seamlessly as pastels on a canvas. Down the tracks we go, through the spicy streets of Palermo and on to a moonlit Modica, rich with colours that lull the ear into a hypnotic tranquillity. We awake to the long-awaited taste of “Arancina”, a treat lush with joyful flavours. The sly modulations and energetic drive of “Raven’s Wing” take us in a refreshingly new direction, and are balanced out by a wandering, sultry take on Coltrane’s “Giant Steps”. Fawn Fritzen’s vocals lend a ray of sunshine to “Bittersweet Goodbye”, and the album closes with a reassuringly upbeat and sizzling finale, alive with the electricity of Bebop.
