I Got a Letter

I got a letter from my friends, it says
‘Don't you read me until you're feeling loved up and all romanced’
I couldn't tell you whether we have
[CHORUS]
Is it you and me babe
I gotta know if it’s you and me babe
I gotta know if it’s you and me babe
I gotta know
You and me babe
I gotta know
We went away for a little trip
Tonight we had a lovers tiff
You hate me now
I hate you more
But then I gotta know when you're at the door
If it's you and me babe
[CHORUS]
I got a letter from my friends, it says
‘Don't you read me until you're feeling blue'
Well I did and guess what too?
I'm only blue when I'm fighting with you
[CHORUS]
I gotta know if you love me so
I gotta know if you need me so
You gotta tell me, you gotta scream it
I gotta know
[CHORUS]
You and me babe
You gotta tell me
You and me babe, I need to know
You and me babe I gotta know
You and me baby I gotta know
Is it you and me babe, I gotta know
You and me babe, please don’t go
You and me babe, I gotta know
You and me baby I gotta know

Baby I Love You

Baby I love you, you know that I do
Baby I love you, you know that it’s true
When we’re together I’m yours and you’re mine
When we’re together I want it to be all of the time
[CHORUS]
Baby I love you x 4
Baby I love you each day more and more
Baby I love you more than I did before
Call me on the telephone, tell me how was your day
Call me on the telephone, tell me you won’t go away
[CHORUS]
Repeats to end

One And Only Friend
02:55
|

|
Going on a train, going on a train
I wait two hours till I, I see your face again
I've been missing you, I've been missing you
I spend the journey wishing, wishing, wishing, wishing you
Were next to me again, kissing me again
I sometimes think that maybe you’re my one and only friend
My one and only friend x 3
You know it's been a while since I've missed your smile
Now we’re apart I think our hearts grow fonder by the mile
I'm getting butterflies, soon I’ll look in your eyes
And we’ll be back in exactly the same place we were before
We were before coz you’re my one and only friend
My one and only friend x 3
I know it's just because we fall in and out of love
But I remember how you said it would be tough
These days I'm dreaming on the train that’s taking me
Into your arms because that's where I wanna be
My one and only friend

All The Fun We Had
03:19

Where did it go, all the fun we had?
Where did it go, when did it go bad?
Don't you worry, don't you think about it?
Don't you worry?
Don't you worry, don't you care about a soul?
Don't you worry?
[CHORUS]
The sun sets in front of me
I've got to run but think of me
I don't know what happens next x 2
Where did it go, reflections in our eyes?
Where did it go, forever in our minds?
So don't you worry, don't you think about it
Don't you worry
Don't you worry, I'll take care of everything
Don't you worry
[CHORUS]
Do you know what happens next?
So don't you worry, don't you think about it
Don't you worry
Don't you worry, I'll take care of everything
Don't you worry
[CHORUS]
Do you know what happens?

Friends In High Places
02:36
|
|||
|
I don't wanna have friends in high places
I'd hang out more but there's too many faces
I don't wanna be always out on the scene
Same conversations, yeah you know what I mean
Well I’ll stay home I’ve got things to do
Don’t need a lot when I know I’ve got you
I don't wanna have friends in high places
Could spare the time but I’d rather not waste it
I don't wanna be a trusted adviser
I'm happiest being just an outsider
Maybe I will start a new life
How do you know you'll sink if you don't take a dive?
Friends in high places x 4
Sometimes I think I’ve really gone and made a mess of things
Well maybe you just need to have a proper think for me
Don’t know where to go but anywhere that’s far away from here
And when we leave we won’t be sorry that we’ve gone
Friends in high places (repeats to end)

Night Train
02:27

Getaway baby with a pocket of charm
Picking red flowers like a silent alarm
Where did she go, where did she go
Ice cool movie and a radio
Buy me a ticket to the rock ‘n’ roll show
Where did she go, where did she go
Fly, fly baby gotta go, go, go
No time, time, gotta go with the flow
How do you know, how do you know
Diamond mind boy just ahead of the times
Times we had together and the ones left behind
How do you know, how do you know
Sky, sky scraper got the key to the world
I'm just waiting like every girl
Get up and go, get up and go
Night train riding like cigarette smoke
Three yellow cars lined up in a row
Lined in a row, lined up in a row

Come See Me
03:55
|
|||
|
Shades of winter in your heart, everybody else is loved
You should try to come see me, I'll be waiting
I don't wanna be the kind of girl
Who's letting everybody get her down
No I just wanna be happy and we could be just you and me
When I'm sitting home alone
And thinking of the things I'll never own
I close my eyes and count to three
That stuff won’t make me happy
Oh I just wanna have some fun (wanna have wanna have some fun)
I’ll move to where there is more sun (I'll move to be with the sun)
But there's just one thing on my mind
Will you be right there by my side?
I don't wanna go to work anymore
If this is ‘it’ then god I’m bored
Why can’t I just stay young and dumb, my life’s only just begun
Oh I just wanna wanna live my life
No I don’t wanna wanna waste my time
Think of the things that only make me smile
That’s kind of why I'm needing you around
Shades of winter in your heart
Do you think this could be the start
Of a summer after glow, come see me you never know

Why Oh Why
02:51
|
|||
|
Why oh why do you treat me this way
I thought that I would see you every day
My heart you read just like an open book
My love that you just came along and took
Why oh why x 4
Why oh why do you say all those things
You'll never know how much hurt your words bring
My heart was locked but you just broke on in
If love’s a game then I guess you can win
Why oh why do you treat me this way
I thought that I would see you every day
My heart you read just like an open book
My love that you just came along and took
You took my heart (why oh why)

There Goes My Heart
03:06
|
|||
|
There goes my heart
Kick it ‘til it starts
You'll never be so free
So just it let it be
When you're all alone you know
The teardrops on your phone run cold
Pick it up and dial one day
Things could stay the same or change
Shaking up my bones
Nerves won't leave me alone
Gonna make you feel free
So just let it be
You've been letting all these doubts
Get inside your head and grow
I doubt that when you're grey and old
You'll wish you had let them unfold
So trash it all away
Today's another day
You've never been so free so just let it be
When you're all alone just go
To that place inside your head
If you want I'll meet you there
Minds are better when they're shared
Throw away the past and the skeletons
[Repeats to end]

You Do Something
07:43
|
|||
|
Well I know you’re not the only boy who’s ever ‘got’ me
And I know I’m not the only girl to catch your eye
But I’ve been searching for someone like you
And you could feel the same way too
I’ve got everything to lose but I’ll take any excuse
To find myself alone with you
[CHORUS]
Coz you do something that I can’t explain
Swimming round my head every part of the day
You’re never that far even when you’re away
You know you are infecting my brain
Infecting my brain, yeah x 4
I’ve heard a lot of things that go against your favour
My friends tell me it’s clear in just your behaviour
But I’ve got tunnel vision looking at you
Just waiting for a sign or a clue
One day you tell me I’m great but then you walk away
I don’t know what it is I should do
[CHORUS]
Pass me on a hot summer’s night
Tell me you won’t leave me behind
Kiss me when it starts getting light
Save me from the mess in my mind
Pass me, turn wrong into right
Tell me we’re not gonna hide
Kiss me, promise never to fight
Save me
[CHORUS]

about
You & Me, Babe is the debut album from garage pop quartet Love L.U.V.
Recorded at Hackney's Buffalo Studios in 2016, the band's first full-length is a collection of songs about love, life and growing up: from the restless feeling of 9 to 5's ("I don't wanna go to work anymore, if this is 'it' then god I'm bored" sings frontwoman Lucy D. in Come See Me) and social climbers (Friends In High Places), to infatuation (You Do Something) and make or breaks (I Got a Letter).
Citing influences from the heartfelt drama of 60s girl group greats like The Ronettes, to the raw and primitive sounds of Ramones and Link Wray, the anticipated release follows a sold-out debut 7" and EP (the latter released on cassette via US indie label Workerbee Records) and an exclusive single release in Japan for This Time Records.
Borrowing their name from the immortal spoken word intro to The Shangri-Las classic Give Him A Great Big Kiss, Love L.U.V. emerged in 2013 and have spent the past four years building a cult following across London's subterranean venues, picking up airplay from the likes of John Kennedy, playing with bands such as The Monocrome Set, Telegram, Ghost Car and SAP, and gracing stages at festivals including End of the Road and Festival No. 6.
You & Me, Babe is out now on digital download and 12" vinyl* via the band's Frango Records label.
*Limited edition pleather sleeve vinyl sold out
'You And Me, Babe' is incoming, a series of taut, perfectly deformed pop songs that arrive with more hooks than a tackle shop.' - CLASH
