A White House Cantata: Part 1: Seena Songtext
von London Symphony Orchestra, Kent Nagano

Seena
Tama Seena

I knew her so long
My sweet little Seena
I knew her before
She was crawling on the floor
Then one day this week
Her hair brushed my cheek
And now I don′t know her no more

I knew her so well
My sweet little Seena
I knew every pout
Every twinkle that she wore
Then one day her smile
Lit the sky for a mile
And now I don't know her no more


Oh, I used to know
If her tears were real
But I don′t know now
All I do is feel
And I used to know
Where her thoughts would fly
But I don't know no more
All I do is die of love and mourn her so
And that's all I know, Seena
That′s all I know, Seena

We laughed and we played
Me and little Seena
We ran through the years
Through the trees by the shore
But gone is the past
I met her at last
And now I don′t know her no more

No, now I don't know her no more
