Steemit Open Mic Week 71 - Original song - True Love by L.A.W

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)


This is our first submission to the open mic. I am Sam, this is Jordan @thisisjordan.

I wrote the song when Jordan and I first met, so thought it was a good opportunity to share it with you. 


Shout out to these guys for putting this all together.

@passion-ground @krystle @pfunk @luzcypher

 (also - this is Jordan's first time playing bass!! EVER!) 

Hope you enjoy it.


TRUE LOVE


True Love

Comes from above

I didn’t want to freak you out too soon

Cause I really like you


Woke up wanting to talk to you

Didn’t want to freak you out too soon

I wondered if you woke up and thought that too

Didn’t want to freak it out too soon


When was it that you knew 

Was it at the bus stop

Or when I walked into the post box

Whilst trying to kiss you


True Love

Comes from above

I didn’t want to freak you out too soon

Cause I really like you


Spoke to you in the afternoon

Wondered if you’ve changed your tune

Remember where we were when we heard that tune

That goes do do do do 


When was it that you knew 

Was it at the bus stop

Or when I walked into the post box

Whilst trying to kiss you


True Love

Comes from above

I didn’t want to freak you out too soon

Cause I really like you

Got an XX feel about with some Pete Docherty looks and Debbie Harry, sounds good for a bit of shoe gazing, nice one. Enjoyed it. I feel like I could slow dance to it in a bar.

I used to get told I look like Pete Doherty a lot! Used to drive me mad at the time. Blondie FTW though!

Thank you for your feedback! Yay! Debbie Harry is one of my idols! Cheers 😊

Tis all good, you make a good pair. Looking forward to your next one. Don't forget to add your songs to the #digitalbusking tag. I'm trying to build it up!

I like the lighthearted way in which you deliver the message in this song. Nice.

I apprecaite that, keeping it chilled out for you x

We need more "chilled out" my friend. Thanks.

Thank you for the support! 😊
