Lyrics;

Butterflies words and music by Doug Payne 2008

Baby your eyes are a sunrise
Your laughter, my favourite love song
Your hands are sensational wild butterflies
beside you where i belong

So how can we say i dont love you
when the music we make is a song
only people in love know the words
only people in love sing along

baby you came into my space
in spring time when all lovers play
and butterflies search for the right place
in circles that take me away

How I long for those days in September
That wonderful intamacy
in spring time, I hope you remember
that you were once in love with me

Stereo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9krJZDZmNg&fmt=18


Sorry Doug, I changed some chords and words
but nothing serious I hope!
It´s a beautiful song
Special thanks to Luke (guitarmmaster) Gettin´good on the Harp!
Lyrics:
"In The Queue"

This is a last dance
I want you to know
I´ll be taking you home
This is my last chance
And I won´t let it go
Don´t you ever wake up alone again

And my friends all laugh at the things I do
Wasting my life away
But they don´t know half what I´ve been through
To be alone with you
To be alone with you

I´ve been with another
Not sure of her name
She filled a void in me

Sweet sensual lover is waiting in vane
My heart will never be free

Each day after work I wait on the way
I know she´ll drive on by
I know it will hurt just like yesterday
M y smile didn´t catch her eye

And my friends all laugh at the things I do
Wasting my life away
But they don´t know half what I´ve been through
To be alone with you
To be alone with you

Last time I met with my casual babe
I saw a spark in her eye
It made me forget all my loyalties fade
It´s love I can not deny

And my friends all laugh at the things I do
Wasting my life away
But they don´t know half what I´ve been through
To be alone with you
To be alone with you
To be alone with you

A Maysey special i had to cover this as I fits the theme of many songs I do.

I did this my way and i did not include one verse as it became too long for my equipment that the time.

This is a collaboration with coomadoug, a great song writer and musician. He wrote the great lyrics that I had the pleasure of putting to images.


The Rogue
Words & Music by Doug Payne
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poSzazrJ1d8
from the CD "Sinkers Hooks and Things" available on iTunes
www.cdbaby.com

Did you consider the pain
waiting for us at the border?
Did you proudly sign your name
authorising the order.

Did your follow through go smoothly
and the tee shot straight up the fairway?
Did you contemplate the cruelty
in the bunkers and sand far away?

With all your heart and soul
you sing to the Star Spangled Banner
and the little things you control
for a CNN camera.
A rogue tee shot strikes the first lady
For an hour the free world must stall
as an Afghani looks for her baby
for a lifetime where rogue missiles fall.
But you're standing in all the right pictures.
Your spin-doctors control the light.
With occasional quotes from the scriptures,
you help us continue the fight.

Do you feel that you're walking with Jesus?
Is he guiding you straight down the fairway?
But what will he think when he sees us?
What will he say judgment day?
What will he think when he sees us?
What will he say judgment day? ©

Taken for Granted

She found it in a music store.
It filled an empty space
There were words she's never heard before
from a young and handsome face.

The singer isn't famous
This is not billy Joel
But his lyrics stood between us.
He touched my baby's soul

When i tried to hold her
his lyrics filled her head.
The nights were growing colder.
It was painful in our bed.

Now i understand it,
why she was so enchanted.
I know she didnt plan it
I just took her love for granted.

I buy her gifts and flowers
i cook her favourite meals
i massage her for hours
Its a love that she can feel

Now i understand it,
why she was so enchanted.
I know she didnt plan it
I just took her love for granted.

Now we find it easy
We sing our favourite song
I tell her when she pleases me
and i know when I;m wrong.

Now i understand it,
why she was so enchanted.
I know she didnt plan it
I just took her love for granted.

repeat end

City Traffic sitting still
I'm stressed, I'm stuck I'm feeling ill.
There must be something terribly wrong.
I've felt this way for far too long.

We all hate standing in a queue.
We push and shove everything we do.
In a place where speed and greed are good,
they'd sell their Grand Mother if they could.
I know the best things in life are free,
but they just wont wait for me

Life is moving way too fast.
I dont get to be with my baby til last.
Time is precious. Life is short.
Our love shouldn't be just an after thought.
I know the best things in life are free
but they will not wait for me.

So let me hold you through the coldest night
and watch you sleep til the morning light.
Can we say we're sorry when we're wrong?
Let us open up it will make us strong.
You know the best things in life are free.
Slow down baby, you'll see.

Listen to what our children say.
Remember how we were yesterday.
The crazy songs, the cloths we wore
let them bring it on for us once more.
Where the best things in life are free,
let them bring it back for me.

Life is moving way too fast.
I dont get to be with my baby til last.
Time is precious. Life is short.
and love shouldn't be just an after thought.
Time is precious. Life is short
and love shouldn't be just an after thought...end©

I've been chatting back and forth with Doug Payne (coomadoug) over the last couple weeks about covering one of his tunes. "Modern Life" is my favorite of his, and seemed best suited for my voice, and also for some cello work, so this is the result. I hope you all enjoy. Please visit Doug Payne's page. He's got a lot of great songs to listen to.

Two famous songs have a remarkable history,,,see the facts here

Doug "coomadoug" payne wrote to me and told me he had a dream in which I sang this song he had written and he asked me if I would be interested in trying a version of his song. I was flattered cause this is a great song and I hope I haven't turned Doug's dream into a nightmare.

Modern Life

City traffic sitting still
I´m stuck I´m stressed I´m feeling ill
There must be something terribly wrong
I felt this way now for far too long
We all hate standing in a queue
We push and we shove everything we do
In a place where speed and greed are good
They´d sell their grandmother if they could
I know the best things in life are free
But they will not wait for me

And life is moving way too fast
I don´t get to be with my baby to last
But time is precious life is short
love shouldn´t be just an after thought
I know the best things in life are free
But they will not wait for me

And listen to what the children say
Remember how we were yesterday
Those crazy songs the clothes we wore
Let them bring it all back for us once more
Where the best things in life are free
Let them bring it all back on me

Let me hold you through the coldest night
I´ll watch you sleep ´till the morning light
Can we say we´re sorry when we´re wrong
Let us open up it will make ya strong
I know the best things in life are free
Let them bring it all back on me

DISTANCE

Lyrics;
Every once in a while
i just cant live without your smile.
It puts me right out on the road.
I drive 500 miles.

Every day, late at night
nothing ever seems quite right,
'till i have you by my side
in the morning light.

There are times when I am hurting.
A jealous heart thinks you dont care.
I'm crazy for thinkin' you've been flirtin'
with other guys since i ain't there.

Every day that you call,
i hear your voice
and that´s all
that i need to pick you up
any time ya fall

And i cant wait 'till Im arriving
and feel your body in my hands.
makes me wonder how we've been survivin'
Only the lonely can understand.

Every once in a while
i just cant live without your smile.
It puts me right out on the road.
I drive 500 miles.

And i cant wait till Im arriving
and feel your body in my hands.
makes me wonder how I´ve been survivin'
Only the lonely can understand.

The Old Red Phone Booth
(words and music by Doug Payne)
http://cdbaby.com/cd/dougpayne
http://tinyurl.com/DougPayne

I drive through Wangi Wangi,
that old home town of mine.
My heart is beating strongly.
I think of my Valentine.

There's the old red phone booth.
Some how it still works fine.
There we learnt the chemistry of love
each night on the old phone line.

As I drive through Wangi,
a journey back in time,
the photos I carry on me,
remember my Valentine.

There's that old grey parrot,
still sitting on his persh.
Do you remember how he swore at us
when we ran away from church?

Cut in the bark of a gum tree,
"babe I love you so"
I cut the heart in deep.
I wanted all time to know.

Dark storm clouds gather,
blowing hail on the roof.
Loud thunder shakes all my
reflections in the booth.

But in the old red phone booth,
it's our song "Yesterday"
and the echo of your singing voice
that blows me away.

Each time I drive through Wangi
I get you on the line.
My heart is beating strongly.
You're still my Valentine.

SPECIAL THANKS TO RICK (BIOS36) FOR ALL OF HIS PATIENCE, ASSISTANCE AND CREATIVITY IN PUTTING TOGETHER THIS VIDEO FOR DOUG AND I.


"Sing With Me"

There are feelings from the softest place,
Written for you on your lover's face
When I sing to you a love song
Created in my heart
Why don't you sing along, baby, let the music start

(CHORUS)
And maybe I am dreaming there's a blue sky
The day when there's a sparkle in your eye
I'm dancing with your soul in the moonlight
I'd walked a hundred miles for such a night
--
There are things you choose not to hear
Your love whispers sweet things in your ear
But I can never move you to share a joyful tear
And it seems that I might lose you -
Darlin' this is my greatest fear
--
CHORUS
--
I take the pain - I walk it all over town
I try to smile but my eyes let me down
This is a real heartache
And it's filling up my chest
How much more can a man {girl} take
When will it let me rest
--
CHORUS
--
