It's one fine day when you can get another human to speak your language of love. The styles are different for everyone I suppose, but for musicians, the real conversation is said with a song. When we were given the old, ugly, yellow-white, upright piano, I was inspired to write a different kind of melody. With this one, I picture myself in an after-hours smokey lounge; just me, my piano and a haunting, sexy saxophone.
The piano movers took one look at the marble paint job Linnette and I did and just about had a heart attack...haha psyche! But this piano moved many times with us - once, they lost control of it, launching it off the mover's ramp onto the ground in pieces. Mark put it back together and it was only slightly out of tune. Luckily, he is a master tuner and I was tinkling the ivories once again. I was sad to see the old piano go away in 2017. It was replaced with an electric model which records a heck of a lot better than the other.
The lyrics say it all in this song; there's something hopeful about it, there's something miserable about it, there's something magical about it. I practiced the lead break over and over to get it to sound smooth, like I knew what I was doing. LOL. Then, Gerry Potter played his saxophone parts more times than he wanted to, I bet, in my Twisted Gitar Music Studio in Port Coquitlam. It's a simple, sultry song that is relatable to most, easy on the ears and sweet enough to slow dance to. So, let yourself be transported to another place and time and until we speak again, remember to Love, Laugh and Dance! ~*.*~ Lea Sheldan

Sing along with the lyrics below:
Language of Love
Troubles blow away
You wake up to a sunny day
And you know you’re in love
In love with the one who found you
Who wraps her arms around you
Nowhere to go but straight up
You say that you’re my man
And that you understand
What it means to be true
True to the one who loves you
Who never ever doubts you
You've got nothing to lose
You speak my language of love
And walk that line that’s been walked for ages
Remember when you were mine
You know it’s right
If it feels good . . . And it feels good
You spent me like dime
Wore out my body and mind
Then you set my heart free
Now I’m free like an eagle flying
But inside I’m crying
Why don’t you come back to me?
And speak my language of love
Walk that line that’s been walked for ages
Remember when you were mine
You know it’s right
If it feels good
And it feels good. . . it feels good
Troubles blow away
You wake up to a sunny day
You're speaking the language of love
