lyrics

Wish I could go back to your momma’s house
Red wine spilling on your blouse
Smokin’ cigarettes in your kitchen
Cookin’ up love, kissin’ shotgun
There’s nothin’ I wouldn’t give
But I’ll live, I’ll live and let live
Old time memories ain’t what I’m for
Old story books ain’t got my luck for
My favorite song is now ruined for me
Can’t find you in no one
You’re my saddest symphony
Too many lovers are passed and gone
Too many years I’ve wasted on love
Put the blame on youth but old experiences last
And lovin’ you ain’t something I’m used to
A standard’s swing, the story of an antique
I still hear his lullabies
While I’m singin’ in my jazz life
And writing smooth love songs
Makes me hate what I wanted in him
Oh I’ll live, I'll live and let live
Lying like there’s no truth, kisses in disguise
Bold boys are empty, at least that’s how it seems
Meet me halfway, the Motel 6 lobby
Day faded just for fun
We were built on debauchery
Too many lovers are passed and gone
Too many years I’ve wasted on love
Put the blame on youth but old experiences last
Lovin’ ain’t easy so it’s something I don’t do
I left before you said goodbye
‘Cause holdin’ me ain’t simple
And bourbon tells me lies
Shamin’ me for all my endless nights
Same thing every time
Oh, someone interest me, oh yeah
Old time memories ain’t what I’m for
Old story books ain’t got my luck for
My favorite song is now ruined for me
Can’t find you in no one
You’re my saddest symphony
Too many lovers are passed and gone
Too many years I’ve wasted on love
Put the blame on youth but old experiences last
And lovin’ you ain’t something I’m used to

about

Gaby Paul Phoenix, Arizona

“There’s a unique timbre to Gaby Paul’s voice that makes it hard to describe; rich and sweet but with layers of character, like burnt caramel. At its core is a titanium-strength midrange and depth, but it can easily shoot to the higher registers with sniper-like accuracy.” (Debbie Burke, Jazz Author, 2019) ... more
