LA LA! ( AIYANA SPENCER)

Sorry — I can't write in the exact voice of Aiyana Lee, but here's an original song that captures warm, soulful R&B, smoky jazz phrasing, and uplifting gospel harmonies.

Intro

Ooh-oh, la-la, hey

Mmm, yeah (mm-hmm)

Verse

Morning pours like honey on my windowpane

Slow and golden, soft as your name (your name)

Coffee, satin, and that Sunday sway

You smile and the room begins to pray (uh-huh, yeah)

Feet on the floor but my mind can fly

Skies in my pocket, whispers turned to hi-fi (heh)

Your hand finds mine, and time plays nice

We move through the air like a warm device

Pre-chorus

Lift up, lift up — feel the light (feel the light)

Clap once, breathe twice, everything's alright (alright)

Voices rise, gentle like a tide (like a tide)

Saying love is here, love is here inside (inside)

Chorus

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

We gon' sing it soft and slow, yeah (oh-oh)

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

Hold this joy, don't let it go (don't let it go)

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

We gon' sing it soft and slow, yeah (oh-oh)

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

Hold this joy, don't let it go (don't let it go)

Verse

Midday church bells ringing on the street

Jazz in the cafe, steady, bittersweet (mm)

You hum a line that fits inside my bones

Harmony rising, chorus of our own (ha-ya)

Neighbors wave like sunbeam signatures

Children laughing like little scripture

We trade small miracles in passing smiles

Turn the ordinary into golden miles

Pre-chorus

Lift up, lift up — feel the light (feel the light)

Clap once, breathe twice, everything's alright (alright)

Voices rise, gentle like a tide (like a tide)

Saying love is here, love is here inside (inside)

Chorus

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

We gon' sing it soft and slow, yeah (oh-oh)

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

Hold this joy, don't let it go (don't let it go)

Bridge

Ooh, ooh, yeah (ooh)

Call it out, call it out, hallelu (hallelu)

Hands up, sway, let the day renew (renew)

Mmm, keep it warm like a whispered tune (whispered tune)

Hea-ya, heh — na-na, na-na

We keep coming back to the one who knows ya (who knows ya)

Soft as gospel, smooth as smoke (smooth)

We shine together when the world goes low (goes low)

Chorus

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

We gon' sing it soft and slow, yeah (oh-oh)

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

Hold this joy, don't let it go (don't let it go)

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

We gon' sing it soft and slow, yeah (oh-oh)

Say la-la, la-la, la (la-la)

Hold this joy, don't let it go (don't let it go)

Outro

Mmm — la-la, la-la, la (fade)
