Calle Falksten If it s good enough for a girl called eddy it s quite good enough for me. The name may be a tad confusing at first, not it s not the sex pistols drummer,this is another london dude. Old pursuit ep is 6 very enjoyable tunes of pristine songraft that evokes everyone from Carole King to old powerpopmasters Favorite track: It's You, You.

Sometimes I want you but I don’t need much I know I want just a little touch I kinda see you like a regular flame I hope that you’re gonna feel the same They want me settling but I gotta wait I’m only here for a little break Never tell me that you love me It means a load of nothing (Oh I do) Think it only brings suffering Escaping only lucky (Lucky few) If you take a hand a cuff it It doesn’t mean you love it It’s just an old pursuit Bah bah bah ... I got nothing against material things I need guitars for the guitar strings But paying for a future really must sting Be more open, keep on having flings Can’t get emotional but I’ll be hoping That you are good at the cuddling Never tell me that you love me It means a load of nothing (Oh I do) Think it only brings suffering Escaping only lucky (Lucky few) If you take a hand a cuff it It doesn’t mean you love it It’s just an old pursuit Come on baby say it’s broken from the start Everyone’s shaking, making their world’s fall apart You know my conscience wasn’t always so departed Never tell me that you love me It means a load of nothing (Oh I do) Think it only brings suffering Escaping only lucky (Lucky few) If you take a hand a cuff it It doesn’t mean you love it It’s just an old pursuit

I sit and write soliloquies for you So you get a vibe of what I’m going through And if you don’t like me being all forlorn I can change it up and be kicking up a storm You’ve got to know, you’ve got to know You’ve got to know, you’ve got to know You can make me love, you can change my mood You make me say things I don’t want to I’m experiencing what it is to love The circumstances I am speaking of Are that I got a tickle in my gut That is gonna grow until you can’t rebut You’ve got to know, you’ve got to know You’ve got to know, you’ve got to know You can make me love, you can change my mood You make me say things I don’t want to You’ve got to know You’ve got to know, you’ve got to know You can make me love, you can change my mood You make me say things I don’t want to You make me say things I don’t want to You make me say things I don’t want to

One step at a time I go Next bit that we both know Could start with a “Hi, hello” Just don’t know where to begin I, I’m human It’s you, you baby I love (baby I love, baby I love) It’s you, you baby I love (baby I love, baby I love) It’s you, you, you You’re there (you’re there) with a light down low (with a light down low) One look (one look) and my weakness grows (and my weakness shows) I’d speak (I’d speak), but I’m lost for prose (yeah I just don’t know) Just don’t know where to begin I, I’m human It’s you, you baby I love (baby I love, baby I love) It’s you, you baby I love (baby I love, baby I love) It’s you, you, you And when I see you smile Gets under my skin (under my oh oh …) Don’t think you should see the state I’m in the state I’m in, the state I’m in It’s you, you baby I love It’s you, you baby I love It’s you, you baby I love (baby I love, baby I love) It’s you, you baby I love (baby I love, baby I love) It’s you, you, you

I can stay when I’ve gone, mix the right and wrong Like an elegant swan, I stick my neck our and hola The do’s and don’t’s and the will’s and won’t’s Are the fires to stoke, so I’ll see you tomorrow I live for nothing but I live for you I sold you something but I bought it too So I’ll love you tomorrow if you love me today Go where you wanna but please stay I could butter your bread, sleep on the cold side of the bed Sooth your head, yeah Or be the worse friend, make you miss the beginning And watch it again, yeah I live for nothing but I live for you I sold you something but I bought it too So I’ll love you tomorrow if you love me today Go where you wanna but please stay You ain’t got nothing on me, I ain’t got nothing on you Ain’t got nothing on me, no I ain’t got nothing on you Ain’t got nothing on me, I ain’t got nothing on you So what are we supposed to do if we ain’t got nothing? I live for nothing but I live for you (I live for you) I sold you something but I bought it too (I bought it) So I’ll love you tomorrow if you love me today (love me today) Go where you wanna but please stay

Do Your Thing 01:50
lyrics

Hey Girl, I’m depressed – cos I’m just a love letter on your desk Always up there on your throne, why so good at going it alone? I know you gotta do your thing But do you have to keep me wondering Your phone is never answering It’s not exactly comforting It’s confusing when you stay, but you know you’re gonna do it anyway I’m just an option in your phone, but for me you’re always number one I know you gotta do your thing But do you have to keep me wondering Your phone is never answering It’s not exactly comforting Why you gotta be so elusive? Why you gotta keep me at bay and reduce this, to a simple hookup? Is getting close a hiccup, a hiccup? I know you gotta do your thing But do you have to keep me wondering Your phone is never answering It’s not exactly comforting I know you gotta do your thing But do you have to keep me wondering Your phone is never answering It’s not exactly comforting

Talking down the hours again, walking out on you I may not have a lot to say, I know that much is true I’m not mean, I’m just who I am Sometimes I make you mad That wasn’t what I wanted to say Sometimes I make you mad
