This was my first song I ever wrote on bass and it's was inspired by the loss of my bass guru, George Reiff to cancer.
lyrics
CH
You know how a heartbeat
Both rises and falls
Follow the breath
As it ebbs and flows
Remember the time
When three became four
The beat that brought me to you
When you lose your heart
In that first tug of war
The bass feels the heartbeat
On two and then four
Love bleeds of anguish
Once again and once more
The low end, the rhythm
The heart it beats for
CH
You know how a heartbeat
Both rises and falls
Follow the breath
As it ebbs and flows
Counting in time
Both in rhythm and rhyme
The beat that brought me to you
I’ll love you for always
You’ll be in my heart
For the love and the laughter
Will beat in my heart
May it be with you forever always
Start at the beginning
And sing it once more
CH
You know how a heartbeat
Both rises and falls
Follow the breath
As it ebbs and flows
Remember the time
When three became four
The beat that brought me to you
They say that the hearing’s
The last thing to go
So my friend, my heart
Heart beats once more
Be with you forever
With me always
I’ll see you again
Somewhere and some-when
I’ll see you again someday

Excellent. You sound so different. A bit Elvis Costello and Elliot Smith in there. An urban album. Great clean sound. Love Holidays. More, please? Roy Greer

An album that gets better with every listen. It was already in my top 10 of the year, but it just keeps pushing higher. Lydia Loveless is so damn underrated. William Boyle
