falling in love
falling in love
I've falling in love cos i don't know what to do whats happening here am i in love with you
I've falling in love
am I falling in love
am I falling in love cos I just don't know any more

i often dream about the day we met walking to the dance me and the boys not care in the world
just joking just having some fun seems so many years ago how times have changed
but in the morning in the cold light of day
there's something somehow that now doesn't ring so true not much more anyway

cos I've falling in love
yes I've falling in love
I've falling in love and i didn't know what to do cos its happened again am I in love with you
falling in love
yes I've fallen in love
I've fallen in love and still didn't know what to do

I've sitting on the front porch beer in my hand, half a sleep just watching the sun go down
they don't make anything much better than this and i know there's bin a few, specially with me and the boys
I'm thinking of the girl I love and that day we were making those plans
about all those things that we always wanted to come true, just me and you

fallen in love
oh I've fallen in love
I've fallen in love and I don't know what to do cos its happened gain am I in love with you
I've falling in love
ooh I've falling in love
I've falling in love and I just cant help it but I've fallen in love in love with you again
falling in love


Enjoy

Cordial.. Bouncy.. EZ.. Jazz..

All of those things and more. This is a terrific listen. Your vocal(s) on this are "in the pocket" - getting the sentiment across perfectly.

Nice arrangement - the band comes around at just the right times..

It struck me as a song the Leon Redbone would do.

You are on a roll, Alyn... I like that picture!

Alyn,

Very catchy - the jazzy vibe suits to the feeling a T.
Excellent vocal on this and the Flab Four harmonies work really well.
Nice selfie!

I couldn't say it any better than Flyod so I just quoted him.

This is your best to date IMHO. You should do more like this.

In a word: COOL

For us there are good sorta hypnotic grooves and this is one!

You packed a world of interest in a sparse arrangement. And that good also. And not easy to accomplish.

Most enjoyable!
