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

That's a really great progression, I dig this song! Keep at it, you've honestly learned more in three months than I've learned in 15-ish years of playing drums :). Like, you can keep time, hehehe. I really love the melody on this track, five stars.
