I've Grown Accustomed to Your Face Lyrics


I've grown accustomed to his face
He almost makes the day begin
I've grown accustomed to the tune
He whistles night and noonHis smiles, his frowns, his ups, his downs
Are second nature to me now
Like breathing out and breathing inI was serenely independent and content before we met
Surely I could always be that way again and yet
I've grown accustomed to his looks, accustomed to his voice
Accustomed to his faceI've grown accustomed to his face
He almost makes the day begin
I've gotten used to hear him say
Good morning everydayHis joys, his woes, his highs, his lows
Are second nature to me now
Like breathing out, breathing inI'm very glad he's a man and so easy to forget
Rather like a habit one can always break and yet
I've grown accustomed to the trace of something in the air
Accustomed to his face

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Annie Ross (born 1930) is a jazz singer and actress, best known as a member of the trio Lambert, Hendricks & Ross.
Ross is one of the early practitioners of a singing style known as vocalese, which involves the setting of original lyrics to an instrumental jazz solo. Her 1952 treatment of saxophonist Wardell Gray's "Twisted" is a classic example of vocalese. "Twisted" is perhaps her most famous song.
