3 months with the uke now. How am I doin? I think I'm getting better. I hope :)
So this song is a bit of a nod to The Pixies, and their song La La Love You. I usually write the music for my songs first, and just sing la's until the lyrics come. From that was born "la la la love". It's not quite a tribute to The Pixies, but I do want to acknowlege them & their awesomeness. The songs are entirely different so I wouldn't consider it ripping them off... just a nod, a musical tip of the hat :)

La La La Love
Time, it retreats
lost, in these streets
Spent a lot of nights besides
with thoughts of you I analized
Never been so tired in all my life.
But that's not the point that I'm trying to make
Let's see if I can just get this all straight
It's just...
(Chorus)
La la la love will you come down?
Can you make time?
for a girl who's been waiting here so long
for one sweet word from you..,
I would lose touch, I would fade 'way
I would break down
I cannot breath when you start to speak my name
I forget why I'm here in this place
using up my last grace.
I have never been the type
to keep insisting that I'm right
but babe I do believe it may be fate.
Can't you just find you way into my arms,
and then wrap me up inside all of your charms?
Oh please...
Chorus
I wonder if we will go
where the stars start to grow,
cause there will never be a time
when all is right & just in line
you've got to trust yourself & let it go.
But I'm getting used to this hurry & wait
I guess I can see why you would hesitate
Oh but...
Chorus
But no I am not washed of sin.
I won't say where I've been.
Things don't always turn out right
you're bound to lose a couple nights
but this one I still think it can be saved.
I know that I could change your mind if
you would let me explain instead with a kiss
Oh my...
Chorus
