about

Sometimes it's hard to untangle a relationship that's been DOA for years, and often partners see the relationship in different ways. This song is about two people who see the relationship in different ways. One thinks it's salvageable, the other thinks it's over.

lyrics

I knew things were desperate
When he left here that day
His eyes wouldn't meet mine at all
Just please don't be stupid, was all I could say
He mumbled "I love you, I'll call."

It's OK if you want something more
It's OK if you've found someone new
It's OK if you no longer love me that way...
But don't lie, and say that you do.

I knew things were over when I boarded that flight
As I closed down my mind for the fall
We hadn't been close in a very long time
it seemed that just didn't want me at all.

It's OK if you want something more
It's OK if you've found someone new
It's OK if you no longer love me that way...
But don't lie, and say that you do.

(We're over) Don't say anything
(We're over) Don't say anything
(We're over) Are we over now?

What can I say? I love everything he does! Brilliant songwriter, producer and performer. I actually cried the first time I saw him perform. Felt silly until I saw girl next to me was crying as well! Lobelia

supported by 30 fans who also own “Say That You Do”

I listened to a lot of Steve Lawson's music before buying any. So easy to play in the background while browsing on the iPad. So many moods and good to hear it coming as played live. He gets a lot from a bass and its in HD flac. It was time to catch up on buying... Alan Hall

Ten Years On: Live In London
by Steve Lawson

supported by 29 fans who also own “Say That You Do”

A decade into his career as solo bass guitarist, looper, general entertainer, mouth-on-legs and alarming fashion rebel, Steve Lawson takes stock and visits/revisits both old and new pieces in concert. As ever, "jazztronic", "folkalicious", "popstewed", "calypsodelic" and other cute blender-type adjectives apply. Dann Chinn @ Misfit City
