HE SAID, MARIE, MARIE, HOLD ON TIGHT

And when we were children, staying at the archduke's,
My cousin's, he took me out on a sled,
And I was frightened. He said, Marie,
Marie, hold on tight. And down we went.
In the mountains, there you feel free.
I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter.

The adventures of Julie and a bright blue button

i wrote these lyrics for shawn poon! ooh so exciting!

Julie found a bright blue button
Julie kept it in a pocket close to her heart
Julie nursed it every night to sleep
Julie gave the button a name.

Julie found a bright blue button
The button rolled out of her reach.
Julie searched the city months and days
Julie’s friends told her to forget.

Julie remembers the bright blue button
Julie’s sky is the colour of one blue button.
Julie’s sea is the colour of one blue button.
Julie’s city is the colour of one blue button.

Julie is in the city where we sleep
Julie is you and me (you and me)
I’m looking for you Julie
I’ll find you in the mirror waiting for me tonight.

Chorus
Julie is in love with a bright blue button that doesn’t exist
Julie is in love with a bright blue button that doesn’t exist
Julie is in love with a bright blue button that doesn’t exist
