FAWM: "When I Laid My Eyes On You"

When I Laid My Eyes On You

Liner Notes

This is a simple tune about two people meeting for the first time from across a crowded room. I don't know where I got the imagery from but it works :) #jazz #jazzy #bossanova

Lyrics

Verse 1 When I laid my eyes on you I was mesmerised by love I felt the passion from above Deep inside my heart When you returned my wandering eyes I could tell from your smile That we could hang out for a while And paint this town in style

Chorus You and me we’ll spend some time I want to know if you’re the one for sure Please, promise me you’ll never change You’re the one I love and this will remain My truth… When I laid my eyes on you

Verse 2 I sent a note to where you are On the other side of the room “Baby be with me tonight We’ll set this place alight” I see you stand and walk to me My heart it skips a beat I hope you feel the same way as I do Coz then my life will be complete

Chorus Solo (Verse) Chorus

This is so full of desire and I love how it develops from that first meeting. Great groove to help convey that loving feeling. Love the emotion in the vocals. The guitar solo is seductive!

Yeah this is silly smooth. You have some wonderful crooning going on and that guitar solo is so damn slick. Good job.

i love this kind of jazzy pop that takes me back to that time in the sixties when rock and roll , rhythm and blues, and sophisticated love songs moved up and down the top 40 charts in tandem. an energetic, romantic groove topped with an enthusiastic and flexible vocal.
