Biography

One of the four Neville Brothers, Cyril Neville was the youngest, born on January 10, 1948, in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Cyril picked up his love of music from his parents and his older brothers at an early age, but it wasn't until 1967 (at the age of 19) that Cyril began singing professionally, as he united with brothers [url=https://www.discogs.com/artist/294571-Art-Neville]Art[/url] and [url=https://www.discogs.com/artist/15261-Aaron-Neville]Aaron[/url] in the group Art Neville And The Neville Sounds, playing the New Orleans club circuit on a regular basis. Cyril and Aaron eventually left and formed Soul Machine, shortly thereafter. 1970 saw the release of Cyril's debut solo single, [i]Gossip[/i] b/w [i]Tell Me What's On Your Mind[/i], which included backing music by brother Art's new outfit, [a86616]. Soul Machine relocated to Nashville, then New York City, but both moves failed to help put the group on the top. It just so happened at this time that the Meters were looking to expand their lineup, and asked Cyril to join in on vocals and congas — contributing to such albums as 1972's [i]Cabbage Alley[/i] and 1975's [i]Fire on the Bayou[/i], while the Meters opened up for [a20991] during a sold-out 1974 U.S. tour. Just as the Meters splintered in 1976, Cyril became enraptured with reggae music (thanks to [a41441]'s landmark [i]Natty Dread[/i] album), as all four Neville siblings formed [a78091] group, issuing numerous subsequent recordings. In addition to his work with the Neville Brothers, Cyril has formed other bands over the years, including the Endangered Species Band in 1983 and the [a516313], while he also found time to launch his own record label, Endangered Species. Cyril also founded the New Orleans Musicians Organized (NOMO), which helps musicians who need business advice with their careers. Cyril Neville has issued several solo albums on his own over the years, including 1995's [i]The Fire This Time[/i], and a pair in 2000, [i]New Orleans Cookin'[/i] and [i]Soulo[/i]. Plus he has guested on various other artist's recordings over the years, including albums by [a408641], [a137927], [a15152], [a59792], [a23858], and [a249449], among others. Brother of [a294571], [a294572], [a15261] and [a5248220]. Uncle of [a1263200], [a276274] and [a1961345].

LYRICS

Our love is alive, and so we begin
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table, stumblin' in
Our love is a flame, burning within
Now and then firelight will catch us stumblin' in
Wherever you go, whatever you do
You know these reckless thoughts of mine are following you
I've fallen for you, whatever you do
'Cause, baby, you've shown me so many things that I never knew
Whatever it takes, baby, I'll do it for you

Our love is alive, and so we begin
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table, stumblin' in
Our lovе is a flame, burning within
Now and then firelight will catch us stumblin' in

You wеre so young, ahh, and I was so free
I may have been young but baby that's not what I wanted to be
Well, you were the one, oh, why was it me?
'Cause, baby, you've shown me so many things that I'd never see
Whatever you need, baby, you got it from me

Our love is alive, and so we begin
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table, stumblin' in
Our love is a flame, burning within
Now and then firelight will catch us stumblin' in

Stumblin' in, stumblin' in
Foolishly laying our hearts on the table, stumblin' in
