about

I started working on this song during my first year in New Orleans. It captures the innocence of a crush.

lyrics

You
Might think that I would learn to see it coming,
when she peers from up above,
I just know that I’m in love
when she beckons, I come runnin’

When,
When you asked me my first name,
When I scribbled down your number
I would never be the same.
You are divine and you just float there,

and I let myself forget,
I relinquish all my grip,
I can feel my fingers slip.
I’m losin’ hold
I’m losin’ hold

You,
would think that I would learn to see it comin’
recognize the road,
pick up on the signals.
She waves her hand and I walk over,

I can’t fill these shoes,
I’m not as bright a star as you,
I can’t play my part,
you’re just too tough an act to follow

I
know that I don’t mean a thing
I’m just another fool,
following her every move,
I look about and see I’m just a shadow,
I look about and see I’m just a shadow,

Losin’ Hold,
Losin’ Hold

about

Ted Hefko and The Thousandaires New Orleans, Louisiana

Ted Hefko & The Thousandaires stir up an intoxicating brew of the profound and the profane, of virtue and vice and most importantly the volatile in-between. Ted’s songs explore hope and hustlers, saints and strays, drifters and the down-and-out. The band brings these stories to life with the spontaneity of jazz, and the rough-hewn, bare-bones tone of backwoods rhythm and bllues. ... more
