Last to Speak by Allen Stone

Our generation’s “What’s Goin On?” Allen Stone closed his Seattle show with just him and his guitar doing this song. Listen closely… (warning: one well-placed f-bomb). This is what great songwriting is all about. And doesn’t hurt that he’s ridiculously talented.

“When God made you, he cussed for the first time.  He turned to an angel, gave him a high five and said “God damn, I’m good.”  You were that beautiful.”

“Pull me close to you and tell me that you love me.  Then scratch your future into my back so that I can be everything that you live for.  I promise that I will die for you daily and then resurrect in your screams.”

Whacha Gonna Do (with Olympic Sound Collective)

Had the pleasure of recording and performing live with OSC in 2007 and finally produced a version I really liked - so I hope you do too. Just can’t beat the sound of the soul keyboard (Hammond B3 - classic). And even harder to find someone that can lay it down like Delvon did on this track.

Delvon Dumas - Keyboards

Mike Saskor - Electric Guigar

Charlie Workman - Drums

Scotty - Bass

Lyrics 

Bout 4 o’clock in the morning

Still up cause you caught me on fire

Got your smell on my clothes

And I’m ‘bout to explode

Ain’t never enough get by

Ooh you give me such a good feeling

Fill me with your natural high

Your body’s soaking wet

Giving more than you get

Making love till your well is run dry

CHORUS

Let me hear you say ooh-ahh

Then tell me what you’re gonna do

Say ooh-ahh whacha gonna do

Can I get a little amen

And let me feel your love again

Say ooh-ahh what you gonna do

V2 – The very next day

You made my world stop turning

Tell me to stay

Say I should take my time

Slowly get you undressed

Until you finally confess

You say, “I can’t get you out of mind”

Ooh we’ll put it on this evening

Loving till we lose control

I can’t escape my desire

Your love is taking me higher

From my head to the depths of my soul

CHORUS

BRIDGE

It’s not the little things you do

It’s all about the way you move

You look me up I take you down

We feel the room go round and round

Once more the spell is taking hold

We better do just what we’re told

I know we both can’t take much more

So tell me what we’re waiting for

CHORUS

Can you love me in the morning

Can you love me in the evening

We’ll make love all thru the weekend

Whacha gonna do

Let me love you tell it’s alright

Can we keep it going all night

Let’s burn it up until we ignite

Whacha gonna do

From the early morning

Til the break of dawn

What we gonna do

Just can’t be wrong

Whacha gonna do

Whacha gonna do

Better do just what we’re told

Never Know

(home studio production: Mike Saskor | electric guitar, Jon Day | vocals/bass)

Seems like it’s over before it began

And that’s a crying shame

I knew right then, that you were the one

Didn’t even know your name

Just like the first time

When you’re falling in love

Felt so damn good, like a hand to a glove

Minutes turned to hours - hours to days

I was prepared to love you

In so many ways

CHORUS

Until Oh - well there you go

Searching for answers that you’ll never know

And ooh, it hurts so bad

Cause you’re the best damn woman

That I never had

V2 - There was a moment

In the middle of the night

When you held my hand

I played it cool

Didn’t let you know your touch

Was more than I could stand

Until the last time

When you told me goodbye

I can still see the tears welling in your eyes

I spent too many hours and so many days

For you to, just turn around

And slowly walk away

CHORUS

BRIDGE

You know you did it

Why can’t you just admit it

You were so afraid

One day you hit it

Next day you quit it

All the plans we made

You try to tell me I’m wrong

But it’s the same damn song

Gave you too much of me

And for far too long

So please just say goodbye

To all your painful lies

My love will never be your alibi

CHORUS (2x’s)

No Words (home studio production)

I never thought I’d say this

But I think I might be falling

Won’t even try to fight it

Cause your body just keeps calling

My name - I know

You’re telling me you’re ready to go

CHORUS

And I just can’t explain

How I feel when I’m with you

Cause there are no words

That give meaning to what you do

But then there are times

When my love comes shining through

Met by the moments

When you say you love me too

V2 -

Everytime I think I know

You find a way to keep me guessing

But there ain’t nothing wrong

I’d gladly take another lesson

In love - tonight

Won’t stop until you tell me it’s right

CHORUS

BRIDGE

And I-I need you to know

Whenever you need me

I’m ready to go

No words can ever say it

And i just can’t contain it

I love you more

Than you’ll ever know

CHORUS

Met by the moments (repeat)
