Lady of the Butterflies

As I said in my last post I went chasing Butterflies. It was a bad idea. Lyrically not bad but the personal price was bad. How bad? Um... BAD 



Lady of the Butterflies

Lady of the Butterflies
In meadows of green and flowers
Floatin' and flutterin'
With wings of Freedom
She loves
And Laughs away the hours.

I am Humbled by the way she loves me
I was so surprised that she cared
She's the Lady of the Butterflies
Daughter of the Wind
And Sister of the Air

She found me 
In the Springtime
Killin' time 
and my self
She led me out of the darkness


I am Humbled by the way she loves me
I was so surprised that she cared
She's the Lady of the Butterflies
Daughter of the Wind
And Sister of the Air

My Lady is gone now
To the Kingdom 
of Gold and Light
I'll be goin' soon myself
For with the love she shared
I've become a Lord of Butterflies


I am Humbled by the way she loves me
I was so surprised that she cared
She's the Lady of the Butterflies
Daughter of the Wind
And Sister of the Air


+++++++++++++++

I'd fallen behind here.... now caught up.

Crazy Lady

This is the second oldest surviving  lyric.  I believe it was written in Written May 1974. About a girl I once loved... and failed miserably.  I got my just reward. I went chasing after a butterfly and fell into a chasm.



Crazy Lady

A smile on your face
your arms open wide
starlight a beamin' 
from your ever shinin' eyes
Livin in a world
All your own
Made of candy
Ice Cream and Sno' Cones

h     Crazy Lady
o     Ya live in a dream
r     Crazy Lady
u     Am I, What I seem?
s

Well the Spring of My Life
Is going so fast
Don't know how long
I gonna last
But with your sweet Love
And your halo of light
I just know 
I'll be alright

c
h     Crazy Lady
o     You surround me
r     Crazy Lady
u     What can you be?
s

Words won't describe
The things that you feel
But one thing you know
The feelin's are real
As they dance as visions
In your mind
Open your eyes 
What do you find?

c
h     Crazy Lady
o     What do you see?
r     Crazy Lady
u     Do you love me?
s

Ask me no questions
I'll tell you no lies
Be what you are are 
and I'll realize
The Past is a dream
A head the answer lies
I'll just 
Open my eyes

c
h     Crazy Lady
o     What shall I do
r     Crazy Lady
u     I Love you.
