Lizz Wright - Salt Lyrics
How can you lose your song
When you have sung it for so long?
And how can you forget your dance, your dance
When that dance is all you ever had?
You can't separate the two
Oh no, you can't
It's impossible to do
Just like the salt in the stew
Oh my, it's all a part of you
One thing that life cannot do
Life can't do it, no
It can't take your song from you
For you to give your part, to give your part away
Don't just stand there feeling scared
Don't be afraid
'Cause there could be a treasure right there
Now listen, listen to the truth
It does not matter, doesn't matter what to do
Still gonna be you
Just like the salt in the stew
Yeah, it's all a part of you
And one thing, the one thing that life cannot do
Hey, hey, hey, can't do it no
It can't take your song from you
Life can't take it
You don't give it
Life can't take it
It can't take your song from you

Lizz Wright Salt Comments
Got to be one of the very best singers in the world. I'm very surprised she isn't more well known. She's every bit as good, if not better than Melody Gardot and Diana Krall, but with more soul.
Zout op mijn huid. 😢
Stay Strong! Great song. Thanks for uploading. Check out my "Positive Music Vibes Radio" channel. Subscribe, shuffle, and enjoy! The message is in the music.
Saw her in AB Brussels. ...
I have to thank my gf for introducing this wonderful song to me...just wow.
Wow...What a Class<3...Light & Love...
play it when I am putting my daughter to sleep! :) she loves the " don't be afraid part".
What a beautiful message of love, strength and fortitude to send her to sleep with. May she forever be brave!
She said the right thing. Thanx Lizz, i just walked in the room you were singing, at The Northsea Jazz Festival in 2004 or 2005. Only one free chair and my wife said 'you sit down and i stand next to you". Right at that moment you started Salt. There was a silence in that big room and then these first six words. From that moment i had a fight, against my nose that started to walk. And then my eyes. It was a hot summernight and no sleeve to wipe my nose and eyes. Don't ask me how i did it, but i did it. What a song!
Been in love since I first heard her more than 8 years ago
I heard her music back in 2003. This entire album is a gem.
This song speaks to my soul.......... Real food for Mind and Soul
A set of tubes, a set of Dyanco A25’s and this is musical bliss....
The first song I heard from her. 💜💜
Love her. I had the pleasure of hearing her perform live in Kaiserslaitern, Germany....phenomenal!!!!
I absolutely love this song....
I bought this album when my life ended with a fortune 500 company back in 2003, making so much money..$$$.$$$.$$...cry many nights, why? But, the company down size. Trying to get back there....still can't believe it ended.
cesmooth38 how are things now
Enjoyed her live!
Linda Mulher, linda voz e super Artista!!
This song is my "Salt" and Pepper. Heard it today on XM radio, my wife used to play it all the time. I love the horn section and the keys are stroking. Now I am hooked!
Wow. I'm in love. Her Lianne La Havas need to tour together, that would be an awesome concert.
+ben woods I fully agree
wow, first time hearing of this artist and she is badddd. wow.
And cool.
no life, can never, take your salt it`s who we are!
Great song, but what if you have hypertension and can't add salt in the stew?
@Phoenixspin lol that would be one bleak stew
mizz Lizz puts up a blues plate special with plenty of soul-seasoning and gospel to garnish
oh dear lizz wright, sing sweet sounds that feed my soul..
@JazzyBelle30 I think i have him one better...Ive seen her twice live and have a picture with her....How she makes you feel about her music is how she is..very humble pleasant and kind person
this is food for my mind , body and soul . . . .
Truth stated @DJDJANGO1 + a second sprinkling of a little 'b(lessing) attitude' via Leviticus 2:13, Matthew 5:3-16 and Colossians 4:5-6. P(e)ace all!
Lizz Wright is one of the greatest contemporary Jazz vocalists today. Sadly overlooked by the mainstream. This woman rarely gets her props. This uplifting Jazz song is her own composition and arrangement that sounds like a standard from back in the day!
I have seen her live 5 times solo and with Dianne Reeves in the Nina Simone tribute concert: 'Sing The Truth.' Live Ms Wright is by far one of the most moving artists with haunting vocals that mess with your soul.
This is just an all around wonderful song and she's great too!!
Amazing!!!!
