Music, Lyrics and Style: Latch / Fit and Flare

It has been awhile since I posted lyrics of the songs from my current playlist.  Here's what I have been humming for some few weeks.  The version that I am drawn most is a cover for Disclosure feat. Sam Smith, which is by Natalie Taylor and the title of the song is LATCH.

I have the chance to first hear this version of LATCH from the last episode of Beauty and the Beast Season 2.  And from then on, I get hooked of the song while waiting for the next season of the series.

You lift my heart up when the rest of me is down

You, you enchant me even when you're not around

If there are boundaries, I will try to knock them down

I'm latching on, babe, now I know what I have found

I feel we're close enough

I wanna lock in your love

I think we're close enough

Could I lock in your love, baby?

Now I've got you in my space

I won't let go of you

Got you shackled in my embrace 

I'm latching on to you

I'm so encaptured, got me wrapped up in your touch

Feel so enamored, hold me tight within your clutch

How do you do it, you got me losing every breath

What did you give me to make my heart bleed out my chest?

Music and Lyrics: Girl in Blue

There are several songs with titles that can be associated with the words "girl" / "lady" and "blue" and my list had just started:

(1)

Girl in Blue

sung by Reverend Horton Heat

I have just heard how this song goes (here), hmm, not my type of music but the lyrics did sort of captured my attention.  

(2)

Lady in Blue

sung by Tori Amos

Haven't heard yet of this song.

(3)

Girl Blue

sung by Stevie Wonder

Seems like a sad song.

(4)

Beautiful Lady in Blue

sung by Jan Garber

I'm quite learning to appreciate the lyrics of this song.

Here's the lyrics of song no. 4

Ev'ryone loves a love story told of a maid and a man

But listen to my love story, it ended before it began.

Refrain

A beautiful lady in blue, we met just like two shadows do,

Not one word was said, she kiss'd me and fled and our little romance was thro'.

A beautiful lady in blue, she thought i was someone she knew,

Her lips so divine were not meant for mine, the night seem'd to laugh at us too.

How did i know she was lovely? There wan't a moonbeam a-glow.

How would i know there's a haven unless my heart told me so?

A beautiful lady in blue, and strange as it may sound to you,

A lifetime was spent in one little moment with a beautiful lady in blue. 

(5)

Lady in Blue

sung by Joe Dolan

A song of love and of chance/s in love.

Music and Lyrics: Never Let You Go

I just kind of like the lyrics from Justin Bieber's song NEVER LET YOU GO. 

You might find it quite cheeky though.  :-) Hope you'll bear with me.

They say that hate has been sen, so let loose the talk of love

Before they outlaw the kiss

Baby give me one last hug

There's a dream that I've been chasing

Want so badly for it to be reality

And when you hold my hand

Then I understand that it's meant to be

'Cause baby when you're with me

It's like an angel came by, and took me to heaven

'Cause when I stare in your eyes it couldn't be better

So let the music it blast, we gon' do our dance

Bring the doubter on, they don't matter at all

'Cause this life's too long and this love's too strong

So baby know for sure that I'll never let you go

I got my favorite girl

Not feelin' no pain no fear

Don't have a care in the world

Why would I, when you are here

There's a moment I've been chasing

And I finally caught it out on this floor

Baby, there's no hesitation, no reservation by taking a chance and more

Take my hand, lets just dance

Watch my feet, follow me

Don't be scared, girl I'm here 

If you didn't know, this is LOVE

Music and Lyrics: Summertime

I am currently reviving my favorite tunes from some years ago.

  

Heard of the song, Summertime by Beyonce? I love it's beat and the lyrics too.

Out of all the guys that approach me

Walking up to me like they know me

You were the one that stood aside

Waited a while and took your time

You dont know how impressing

Your curiosity was to me

It was the fourth day of july

Looked in my eyes and saw that I

I wanted more than just a man

I needed a friend

Someone I could talk to

Someone who' really listen

When you touched my hand

The sun got brighter then

Trusting you I close my eyes

And felt our love begin

It was the summertime (when we fell in love)

It was the summertime (when heaven shined on us)

It was the summertime (baby there is nothing like the)

Summertime, summertime

Now it's been a year and we're closer

Fall in love again when I hold ya

I know that God set you aside

For me and now you are my prize

Wanna grow old with ya

Fill our house with your pictures

Have a son for you

A little girl for me

Together we'll raise a family
