New Song: The Umbrella Waltz


The Umbrella Waltz

Say missy, you’ve got a bit of sunshine
He left in your eyes
If I’m not mistaken
It’s a glare I too well recognize

I was feeling like princess Diana
Laying there in his arms
But I brought my waltzing umbrella
To shade all the princes charms

I thought all boys were made of sunshine
Built to wash away all the rain
Keeping me dry so that I could put my umbrella away
The storm clouds are rolling over
Where’s the mermaids tail
When the rain washes her heart away?

I invited him just for one night
How could I expect him understand
How I wear my heart
Like a caged bird in my hand?

I watched as he rushed through my door frame
Leaving me this phenomenon
Empty hands and swiss-made shoes
Cause our waltzing days are gone

I thought this boy was made of sunshine
Built to wash away all the rain
Keeping me dry so that I could put my umbrella away
His storm clouds are rolling over
Where’s my mermaids tail
When the rain washes his heart away?

I keep hiding like this, swimming downstream
Going under, fighting to breathe

So I can take this matter into my own hands
Lucky me - cause I have two!
So tell me, Mr. Cool Cat
Which hand do I use?

I thought you, boy, were made of sunshine
Built to wash away all the rain
Keeping me dry so that I could put my umbrella away
Your storm clouds are rolling over
Where’s my mermaids tail
When the rain washes my heart away?
