LOVE OF THE LOVED OF THE LOVED

about

Back in the 80's, I heard that The Beatles made a demo of an original song called, “Love of the Loved.” I never did have a chance to hear that song until 2015, but back in 1985, I just imagined what the song would sound like if I added an extra LOVED at the end of the song title. This is what I came up with. I consider this one of my experiments for the sake of writing a song. It's fairly generic and predictable. For the recording process, I wanted to keep it as simple as possible, using the first take of each instrument I recorded, including the double-tracked vocals. I didn't bother adding backing vocals since I wanted it to be as simplistic as possible.

This is song #41.

Recorded at The CELL BLOCK Studio in Auburn, WA.

lyrics

MY LOVE, YOU JUST LEFT ME. NO MORE PROMISES FOR ME TO KEEP.
YOU PUT ME DOWN. YOU HAD ME GO 'ROUND
THINKING THAT YOU STILL LOVED ME.

I'M IN SO MUCH DISGUST. YOU NEVER LOVE, ALL YOU GIVE IS LUST.
I'M JUST A CLOWN WITH A SAD-FACED FROWN.
I WAS FOOLED AGAIN.

YOU ARE THE LOVE OF THE LOVED OF THE LOVED,
AND I CAN'T STOP THINKING OF YOU.
BUT IF YOU WON'T HAVE ME, MY HEART WILL BREAK IN TWO.

GIVE ME JUST ONE MORE CHANCE. SHALL WE HAVE THIS ONE LAST DANCE?
I'VE BEEN ON MY OWN. I HATE BEING ALL ALONE,
SO COME ON BACK TO ME.
(SOLO)
SO IT'S TRUE THAT GOOD GUYS FINISH LAST. I LOST MY LOVE IN FUTURE AND IN PAST.
YOU ARE NOT FOR ME, BECAUSE ALL I CAN BE
IS A MAN THAT LOVES YOU SO.

YOU ARE THE LOVE OF THE LOVED OF THE LOVED,
AND I CAN'T STOP THINKING OF YOU.
AND IF YOU WON'T HAVE ME, MY HEART WILL BREAK IN TWO.

YOU ARE THE LOVE OF THE LOVED OF THE LOVED,
AND I CAN'T STOP THINKING OF YOU.
BUT IF YOU WON'T HAVE ME, MY HEART WILL BREAK IN TWO.

YOU ARE THE LOVE OF THE LOVED OF THE LOVED,
LOVE OF THE LOVED OF THE LOVED,
YOU ARE THE LOVE OF THE LOVED OF THE LOVED,
AND I CAN'T STOP THINKING OF YOU.

The Santairs Auburn, Washington

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
