Weeping Willow

Weeping Willow
1. Weeping Willow



Weeping Willow
(verse 1)
Molly sat next to the weeping willow that died
Molly cried into her feather pillow that night
patting her belly
hoping her grandmother wouldn't be mad
and sad that her mother wouldn't see her grandson

but that man gave her strength
it was love at first sight
at the small town diner
next to that red, Supremes playing jukebox

(chorus)
the willow weeps and slim leaves fill in the space
the girl weeps with her hair stuck to her face
life's about to change so much
but she knows she's tough
her baby will be her number one fan
she's got a plan
and her man
(end chorus)

(verse 2)
Molly's Donny bought the diner where they met
putting all their money into it was a bet
when the local paper caught word
customers came pouring in because they heard
it was the best fried apple pies they ever did eat

she shoved a burger into a rude customer's nose
the restaurant caught fire and the fighters were too late with the hose
it all went up and smoke
if it wasn't for the insurance they'd be broke

(chorus)
the willow weeps and slim leaves fill in the space
the girl weeps with her hair stuck to her face
life's about to change so much
but she knows she's tough
her toddler will be her number one fan
she's got a plan
and her man
(end chorus)

(bridge)
life was fun, but even flowers wilt and bend to the wind
she didn't know she was the reason 
so many people's world could end

(chorus)
the willow weeps and slim leaves fill in the space
the boy weeps with her hair stuck to her face
life's about to change so much
but she made it cuz she's tough
her grandson was her number one fan
she's fulfilled her plan
and loved her man
(end chorus)

Unrequited Finally

Unrequited Finally 1. Unrequited Finally Unrequited Finally (verse 1) you and I together made a solemn unspoken oath a secret never told is the very one best kept I shy away when our eyes suddenly meet like I've got a secret identity that I've just got to keep I long to get out of here and feel the spring air at night I can dream only of your long hair we snuck off when no one was looking now you act like you don't know me what is all of this? (chorus) I like that, but why do I like that? my first fantasy and my last taste of love my feelings awakened and fell from above my heart burst from happiness like an attack I like that, but why do I like that? you moved on, but I'm still stuck just chop it up to being romantically sick this is what's called unrequited love finally (end chorus) (verse 2) the lips you kissed are forever sealed shut but they pinned me against the tiled bathroom wall your friends raised eyebrows and asked questions you said not to worry because ...

Mystery Butterfly

Mystery Butterfly 1. Mystery Butterfly Mystery Butterfly (verse 1) open your shiny eyes in the silent night I swooped down into the mystery sneaking in alleyways without any sound of footsteps crouching my back in seductive black cat pose the moonlight carries a shadow on its back of my silhouette "come here" it smiles as it beckons to me it's tempting a contour of desire squirms in the sleepless city it wanders in the guise of a guardian angel to me it holds piece of love without a place to go in its arm as if they're precious treasures as you fall to sleep blissfully are you somewhere having a good dream ignorantly being happy as anyone would want the starry sky kisses you it's time for good children to go to bed to sleep (chorus) don't look at me, don't catch me don't try to be what's become of me I'm a butterfly who got lost in the dark freely singing with monochrome wings no one can see I'm hiding away in your heavy heart (end chorus) ...
