Silver Bella recruited her good pal, Paul Claxton (formerly of Ashes and Dreams), to get fun + funky with this mix.
With influences of soul and R&B, Paul added some funky organ, sax and trumpets, and beautiful spacey strings, among other great elements.

Lyrics (courtesy of Silver Bella):

You can choose your shirt
Fix your hair how you want
You can run your game
Select the best restaurant

You can wear that skirt
Put on your favourite jeans 
But there is just one thing
That you cannot pick between

He can check all the boxes
Seem like a dream
But that don’t mean anything

You don’t get to choose who you fall in love with
You don’t get to choose who you fall in love with
You don’t get to choose who you fall in love with  
You don’t get to choose who you fall in love with  
  
You can pretend you’re straight
Be a good Muslim girl
But no force-fed mate, or marriage can rock your world
‘Cause pretty soon that crack will run right across your face
‘Cause love don’t care about the politics of disgrace

She can check all the boxes
Seem like a dream
But that don’t mean anything

‘Cause like fiddles and foxes
Cookies and cream
It’ll make you go ding, ding, ding!

You don’t get to choose who you fall in love with
You don’t get to choose who you fall in love with
You don’t get to choose who you fall in love with  
You don’t get to choose who you fall in love with

You Don't Get to Choose
