Taking their name from the classic Beatles track, BlackByrd are in the process of turning adult-contemporary pop convention on its head, thanks to Lamb's new-found talent as a critical songwriter. "We've all grown, as people and entertainers," Lamb says. "We're artists now, and loving every minute."
Since January 2012, BlackByrd, along with promoter and music-industry veteran Mike Fuller as manager, have been creating a body of work that will be released as 13-track debut album this September.
I Love You I Just Simply Do
BlackByrd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To have and to hold, till we grow old you'll be my love
I've tried to find the words to sing you the music of my heart
Pure unconditional love, straight from my heart
The kiss of your lips when our hearts say I do
Unspoken forevers
In your eyes love is true and its only me and you
We'll take it together and make it anywhere
And to the journey beginning with you
I love you, I just simply do
All of my life, how I've wondered if I'd ever find someone who believes in true love
In the shadows, afraid not to stand by my side always till forever
I've tried to find the words to sing you the music of my heart
Pure unconditional love, straight from my heart
The kiss of your lips when our hearts say I do
Unspoken forevers
In your eyes love is true and its only me and you
So no, not too heavy, the load that we bear
We'll take it together and make it anywhere
And to the journey beginning with you
I love you, I just simply do
Through the good and the bad
Times when you're flying and I'm on the ground
Though circumstance may leave us on our knees
I'll be around
So no, not too heavy, the load that we bear
We'll take it together and make it anywhere
And to the journey beginning with you
The kiss of your lips when our hearts say I do
Unspoken forever's
In your eyes love is true and its only me and you
I love you, I just simply do
Come as you are, as you were, as before, I'm here my love
