Nottingham resident Harleighblu has been involved in music from a very young age. Growing up surrounded by her Mum’s record collection – a treasure trove of the best soul and rare grooves. She started songwriting at the tender age of 7 at a community recording studio. Now, 13 years on, Harleighblu is preparing to unveil her debut album ‘Forget Me Not’ in October on Tru Thoughts. Here’s a first teaser for you:
Lyrics:
I wanted to be a part of you. I tried to see your point of view
Mentally I’d think your way, my thoughts of you were everyday
I’d try to be colder I’d try lock you out
I’d try to be smarter make sure that I wasn’t about
I’d try to be stronger, drop what I feel
I’d try to be harder get to the truth and find out whats real
Try and play me. I’ll play with your whole world, your whole world.
Try and play me. You messed with the wrong girl, the wrong girl.
I found out, that deep within, your thoughts were dirty, not genuine
Won’t take me out, just hide me in
You’d say you’re just mine… I’m not convinced
I’d always be there for you, I’d always have time
when I wasn’t with you, no doubt I would pine
I know that I’m better than you and yet you’re not mine
I’m just one of the girls that you wine and dine
Try and play me. I’ll play with your whole world, your whole world.
Try and play me. You messed with the wrong girl, the wrong girl.
