UTG Premiere: Johnny Lewis – “Uneasy Love”

Many of you may have noticed that the holiday weekend slowed the flow of new content on UTG in recent days, but today we have made it a point to show you we haven’t slacked in the slightest with a slew of big features, as well as a slew of news posts. My favorite piece of the day, which is included in this very post, comes from none other than producer turned songwriter Johnny Lewis.

We have the great honor of sharing with the world a never before heard Johnny Lewis recording titled “Uneasy Love.” The song hails from Lewis’ upcoming self-titled album, and it has all the makings of a dream pop genre classic. When asked about the song’s origin, Johnny told us “This song came on a lake in Northern Minnesota while I was having a short lived reunion with a high school fling. The air was perfect then. The end was inevitable.”

You can stream “Uneasy Love” below:

The lyrics for “Uneasy Love” are below. If you like what you hear, please consider pre-ordering Johnny’s album ahead of its September 23 release. He also has an album release show on September 8 at the Mercury Lounge in New York City. Stay tuned for more on Johnny’s plans for the future in the coming weeks and months.

“Uneasy Love” Lyrics
If you catch me by surprise on a later date
And if you signal me by storm don’t you hesitate baby
And if you free a black moth from a cloaked charade today
I think we may settle on our Uneasy Love
Oh my Laura

If only you knew you like you know me
If only our time spent wasn’t a ticking travesty
And if the weight of our silence would just set us free
I think that we could settle on our Uneasy Love
Oh my Laura

Maybe if the sharks could shine a gaze through our rumble tumble thunder
And if this high water maze would finally wash us under
Maybe if your face, his face and mine could remember our forgotten blunder
I think we may settle on our Uneasy Love
Oh my brother

When a foggy grain of a passenger lane suggests to me that I’m not coming home again
There’s nothin’ left for us to complain about my friend
This ain’t the end it’s just our last dance
And it put us in a trance
That was our Uneasy Love

If only you knew you like you know me
If only our love wasn’t a ticking travesty
And if the weight of our silence could just set us free
I think that we could settle on our Uneasy Love
Oh my lovers
I think that we could settle on our uneasy love
Oh my lovers
