I'm Never Losing You

'Take My Time' is the first single from Alva's new EP, Self/less, a collection of songs from the emotional tumble dryer of new motherhood.

A left turn from Alva’s previous work in the award-winning Americana duo, Lewis & Leigh, Alva teamed up with producer Matt Ingram at Urchin Studios in London to craft her dark and dreamy pop sound with her crystal clear voice at the centre.

Pre-order the Self/less EP, out everywhere 3 April 2020: 

Lyrics:
Too old, too young
Too much, not enough
Too tight, too loose 
Too tough, lighten up

It ain't easy inside my mind
It ain't easy to be left behind

Take my time, take my time
I'm looking out eyes open wide
Take my time, take my time
Give me freedom for the words that I would never say
Hiding in my head won't help me anyway
Take my time, take my time

Too late to leave
To linger tonight
Minutes then hours
Then days pass me by

It ain't easy to be lost and found
It ain't easy it'll come around

Take my time, take my time
I'm looking out eyes open wide
Take my time, take my time
Give me freedom for the words that I would never say
Hiding in my head won't help me anyway
Take my time, take my time

Let's be odd, time's not even 
Moving fast can numb the feeling
Leave the rules quit the reasons
Become someone to believe in

Take my time, take my time
I'm looking out eyes open wide
Take my time, take my time
Give me freedom for the words that I would never say
Hiding in my head won't help me anyway
Take my time, take my time
