“Before My Eyes” by Browncoat Bud
(Listen to it here)
See deep into her eyes
Feel my stomach grow butterflies
And I know she can take all of me
And I grow a feeling of serenity
But – that bitch
Has taken it all away
That bitch
Took everything today
That bitch
Stole it right before my eyes
before my eyes
take it all away
take it all away
right before my eyes
before my eyes
take it all away
take it all away
I fell for saffron’s lies
& she laughs at my cries
Watching, waiting she’s captivating
Slowly, surely manipulating
Don’t fall in love she’ll get the better of
Your heart’s desire, you couldn’t give enough
So she takes everything away
And she breaks everything
=========================
From the creator:
“Forwarding my entry for the sing a song of Saffron contest, also attached the lyrics. I hope it’s okay that I used the word ‘bitch’ – no dramas if there’s a problem, but I figure that if Meredith Brooks could use it for the title of an international hit then it should be cool for this contest.
“I live in Australia, I do know some people that live in the states but frankly I’m not overly concerned with winning the competition prizes or anything, I just really enjoy the opportunity to be creative and hopefully a few people might listen to and enjoy the song.
“This was heaps of fun – keep me posted if you do more of these comps!”
