Butterfly - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Butterfly
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Rod Bowkett

Lyric:
In my mother's house
There's a photograph
Of a day gone past
Always makes me laugh

There's a little girl
Wary of the world
She got much to learn
Get her fingers burned

An infinity
Between you and me
'Coz we're family, yeah

Said that I'd be fine
Give me all your time
And I left your side
Like a butterfly

Shower me with your love
All of everyday
You make the milk of
Sunshine on me, yeah

Lift me up so high
Watch me fly away
Would you give your life
Like a butterfly?

In my mother's house
There was happiness
I wrapped my myself in it
Was my chrysalis

As my life unfolds
See a pattern through
Of you protecting me
And I protecting you

What was I to say?
Make your own mistakes
And when you woke
Made sure that you remained the same

Now I realize
What was on your mind
When I left your side
Like a butter fly

Shower me with your love
All of everyday
You make the milk of
Sunshine on me, yeah

Lift me up so high
Watch me fly away
And give me a life
Like a butterfly

Hey, shower me, yeah
Shower me with your love
All of everyday
You make the milk of
Sunshine on me, yeah

Lift me up so high
Watch me fly away
And to give me a life
Like a butterfly

I'D Like To - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: I'D Like To
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Tommy Danvers, Paul Herman

Lyric:
Lying with you reminds me of those days
Me and Candice waking up to a heat wave
Mother's in the garden inviting everyone
Ooh, we'd cut off our old jeans and go outside

Neighbor's always smiling with a baby on her knee
Rhea sat on the front step getting her hair combed out and greased
And music, the bass booming, pours from a car parked in the street
Got that new song on repeat, oh oh oh

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I'd just like to make you see I desire the simple things

Growing up, we didn't have a lot of money
Used to spend our summers having parties on the drive
Plastic cups for rum and punch, eating chicken that's hot and sweet
All the women discussing what love is like

Ooh, you know the way I mean
And I'm just sitting watching hoping
The boys will call for me
Got that new song on repeat

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I'm just trying to make you see that I desire the simple things

Maybe then, now and then, I would want somebody
Delicate, intimate, used to dream of someone to love
Now you come and you go right by me
I know I'm in love

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint this picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I'm just trying to make you see that I desire the simple things

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I'd just like to make you see that I desire the simple things

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, and paint a picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I desire the simple things

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd

Put Your Records On - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Put Your Records On
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Steve Chrisanthou, John Beck

Lyric:
Three little birds, sat on my window
And they told me I don't need to worry
Summer came like cinnamon, so sweet
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete

Maybe sometimes, we got it wrong, but it's alright
And nothing seems to change, and it all will stay the same
Ohh, don't you hesitate

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

Blue as the sky, sombre and lonely
Sipping tea in a bar by the roadside
(Just relax, just relax)
Don't you let those other boys fool you
Gotta love that awful hairdo

Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it's alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change
Don't you think it's strange?

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

Just more than I could take, pity for pity's sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realise, that you don't even have to try any longer?
Do what you want to

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down

Ohh, you're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

Call Me When You Get This - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Call Me When You Get This
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Chrisanthou Steve Bush, J Beck

Lyric:
How does it feel being in these arms?
What's it really like to be loved?
I've been alone now, how long?
Have you ever loved the way that I have?

And I have often wondered who
Who could love you the way I do?

Now, I just want you to know
How I'm touched deep in
My soul just being with you

And I need you more each day
Baby, if you're still awake
Call me when you get this

I've got all this poetry
Now, I didn't know then, I kept inside
Guess I had never seen anything beautiful
Till I first saw you asleep at night

And I have often wondered who
Who could love you the way I do?

Now, I just want you to know
How I'm touched deep in
My soul just being with you

And I need you more each day
Baby, if you're still awake
Call me when you get this

I just wanted to know what it was like
What it's really like to be loved?
These little volcanoes came as a surprise to me
I never thought I could be this way

And I have been conscious
And I've tried to keep to myself
Who could love you the way I do?

Now, I just want you to know
How I'm touched deep in my soul
Just being with you

And I need you more each day
Baby, if you're still awake
Call me when you get this

Just want you to know
I'm touched deep in my soul
Being with you

Need you more each day
If you're still awake
Call me when you get this

Breathless - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Breathless
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Marc Nelkin

Lyric:
Seems like everyone else has a love just for them
I don't mind, we have such a good time, my best friend
But sometimes, well, I wish we could be more than friends
Tell me, do you know? Tell me, do you know?

I get so breathless when you call my name
I've often wondered, do you feel the same?
There's a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity when we're all alone
So don't tell me you can't see what I'm thinking of

I can understand that you don't want to cross the line
And you know I can't promise you things will turn out fine
But I have to be honest, I want you to be mine
Tell me, do you know? Tell me, do you know?

I get so breathless when you call my name
I've often wondered, do you feel the same?
There's a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity when we're all alone
So don't tell me you can't see, oh!

'Cause I tried to do this right in your own time
I've been telling you with my eyes
My heart's on fire, why don't you realize?
Tell me, do you know? Tell me, do you know?
I get so breathless!

I get so breathless when you call my name
I've often wondered, do you feel the same?
There's a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity when we're all alone
So don't tell me you can't see what I'm thinking of

I get so breathless when you call my name
I've often wondered, do you feel the same?
There's a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity when we're all alone
So don't tell me you can't see what I'm thinking of

Trouble Sleeping - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Trouble Sleeping
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Steve Chrisanthou, John Beck

Lyric:
It's late and I'm feeling so tired
Having trouble sleeping
This constant compromise
Between thinking and breathing

Could it be I'm suffering
Because I'll never give in
Won't say that I'm falling in love

Please, please, tell me
I don't see myself
Couldn't I blame something else
No, don't say, yeah
Don't say I'm falling in love

Some kind of therapy is all I need
Please believe me
Some instant remedy
That can cure me completely

Could it be I'm suffering
Because I'll never give in
Won't say that I'm falling in love

Please, please, tell me
I don't see myself
Couldn't I blame something else
No, don't say, yeah
Please don't say I'm falling in love

'Cause I've been there before
And it's not enough
So nobody say it

Don't even say it
I've got my eyes shut
Oh, no, oh, no, not enough

Could it be I'm suffering
Because I'll never give in
Won't say that I'm falling in love

Please, please, tell me
I don't see myself
Couldn't I blame something else
No, don't say, yeah
Please don't say I'm falling in love

Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love

Couldn't I blame something else
Falling in love

Don't say, don't say
Don't say, don't say
Falling in love

Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love
Don't say that I'm falling in love

Seasons Change - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Seasons Change
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Steve Brown

Lyric:
Maybe you've been pouring everything into this
Your mistake of this, it turns to agony
You contradict this when it comes to it
You can't hide from me but don't you surrender anything

Don't you know that, that patience is a virtue, yes it is
And life is a waiting game
Don't you know that, peace must be nurtured
And all the money in the world can buy you nothing

Let me tell you that, all these things happen
All these things happen for a reason
So don't you go on and throw it all the way
Get yours, when the seasons change, you're gonna change

Hurts me to see you feel this way but it won't be always
Don't you know everything got to change, oh
Feel like all your hope is gone, you can't carry on
But there's nothing oh, you don't have to pretend with me

Don't you know that, that patience is a virtue, yes it is
And life is a waiting game
Don't you know that, peace must be nurtured
And all the money in the world can buy you nothing

Let me tell you that, all these things happen
All these things happen for a reason
So don't you go on and throw it all the way
Get yours, when the seasons change

Oh, when the seasons change

Like A Star - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Like A Star
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae

Lyric:
Just like a star across my sky
Just like an angel off the page
You have appeared to my life
Feel like I'll never be the same

Just like a song in my heart
Just like oil on my hands
Oh, I do love you

Still I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

You've got this look I can't describe
You make me feel like I'm alive
When everything else is a fade
Without a doubt you're on my side

Heaven has been away too long
Can't find the words to write this song
Oh, your love

Still I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

I have come to understand
The way it is, it's not a secret anymore
'Cause we've been through that before
From tonight I know that you're the only one
I've been confused and in the dark, now I understand

I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
I wonder why it is

I won't let my guard down
For anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

Just like a star across my sky
Just like an angel off the page
You have appeared to my life
Feel like I'll never be the same
Just like a song in my heart
Just like oil on my hands

Choux Pastry Heart - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Choux Pastry Heart
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Teitur Lassen

Lyric:
I was just waiting for your phone call
When they came along to say
That a rose done chased you clear away

You had said I was gamine
But we didn't mean the same thing I think
Broke my choux pastry heart
Guess, life's no picture postcard

One for sorrow
Two for joy

Sometimes you win, ooh
Sometimes you lose
Don't wanna lose you
Don't even own you, yeah
I just wanna stay right here
Until never dawns, yeah, ooh

I was just waiting for your answer
Still, you made your own apologies
I cried so much, I had to leave

Three for a girl
Four for a boy, ooh

Sometimes you win, ooh
Sometimes you lose
Don't wanna lose you, yeah
Don't even own you, yeah
I just wanna stay right here
Until never dawns, yeah, ooh, ooh

Enchantment - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Enchantment
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Rod Bowkett

Lyric:
I wait for you, I don't know why
All I know is I can't hide
At this temperature
You could take over my mind

Like gossamer you softly touch
He draws me in, I'm powerless
He possesses an enchantment

Tell me, I'm forgiven
He calls, don't know
How I fell under his spell
Lately, I've been driven
He smiles an enchantment

I wait for you, I'm mesmerized
This love is like a potion in disguise
I'd tightrope walk
With a blindfold on my eyes

I can't escape or so it seems
I'd run away, he's in my dreams
He possesses an enchantment

Tell me, I'm forgiven
He calls, don't know
How I fell under his spell
Lately, I've been driven
He smiles an enchantment

It's the kind of sleepwalk that never ends
Type of loan with no dividends
It's a parlor game where you're given chase

Guess, it could be called an acquired taste
I know, he knows, he calls, I go, I know
This could be an enchantment

Why don't you tell me I'm forgiven?
He calls, don't know
How I fell under his spell? I'm forgiven

Lately, I've been driven
He smiles and I give in, give in
An enchantment

Till It Happens To You - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Till It Happens To You
Album: Corinne Bailey Rae
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Paul Herman, Pam Sheyne

Lyric:
I know what I said was heat of the moment
But there's a little truth in
Between the words we've spoken
It's a little late now to fix the heart that's broken

Please don't ask me where I'm going
'Cause I don't know
No, I don't know anymore

It used to feel like heaven
It used to feel like May
I used to hear those violins
Playing our strings like a symphony
Now they've gone away

Nobody wants to face the truth
But you won't believe what love can do
Till it happens to you
Till it happens to you

Went to the old flat
Guess I was trying to turn the clock back
How come that nothing feels
The same, now when I'm with you
We used to stay up all night
In the kitchen when our love was new

Ooh love, I'm a fool to believe in you
'Cause I don't know
No, I don't know anymore

It used to feel like heaven
It used to feel like May
I used to hear those violins
Playing our strings like a symphony
Now they've gone away

Nobody wants to know the truth
Until their heart's broken
Don't you dare tell them
What you think to do till they get over

You can only learn these things from experience
When you get older
I just wish that someone would have told me

Till it happens to you
Till it happens to you
Till it happens to you

Young & Foolish - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Young & Foolish
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae, Mark Hill

Lyric:
I remember sitting back
'Cause you said you had something to say
You told me that you had a secret, yeah yeah
Promised to keep it safe, I kept it for you

And we talked and we laughed and we sat in the car
Watched the world go past
I tried to dissuade you but you made up your mind
You were wise at 17

And there was nothing I could do
And there was nothing I could say
I didn't know why you asked me
You're gonna do it anyway

Everybody makes mistakes
(Ooh)
And everybody feels the same
There was nothing I could do
And there was nothing I could say

They said we grown up too fast
That we acted young and foolishly
I keep all this in mind when I recall the time
I have to disagree and be here for you

Ooh, and we talked and laughed
And we sat in the park and watched the world go past
I tried to dissuade you but you know what you're like
You were wise at 17

And there was nothing I could do
And there was nothing I could say
I didn't know why you asked me
You're gonna do it anyway

Everybody makes mistakes
(Ooh)
And everybody feels the same
There was nothing I could do
And there was nothing I could say

Birds in the tree sing a song for me
About being young and foolish and naive
I haven't changed that much from what i see
I was only trying to make things right

And there was nothing I could do
And there was nothing I could say
I didn't know why you asked me
You're gonna do it anyway

Everybody makes mistakes
(Ooh)
And everybody feels the same
There was nothing I could do
And there was nothing I could say

And there was nothing I could do
And there was nothing I could say
I didn't know why you asked me
You're gonna do it anyway

Everybody makes mistakes

Another Rainy Day - Lyrics - Corinne Bailey Rae

Title: Another Rainy Day
Artist: Corinne Bailey Rae
Composer(s): Corinne Bailey Rae

Lyric:
Got taken in
We feasted on olives from the fridge
We stood alone everyday
We made love all afternoon
'Til the stars went gloom

You wrote, I layed
We dined on oysters and champagne
That's what it seemed like
We connect in so many ways
So easy on my sake

Why am I so shy around you?
Why am I so shy?
Why do I take care to astound you?
Why do I even try?

Another rainy day
We sat inside by the radiator
Watching old black and white films
Where everybody sang
You played in my solitude
You didn't get dressed 'til 2

New rain, says I
I wrote this song on my guitar
But it didn't turn out right
Still we just connected in other ways
So easy on my sake

Why am I so shy around you?
Why am I so shy?
Why do I take care to astound you?
Why do I even try?

Why am I so shy around
Oh why am I so shy?
Why do I take care
Why do I even try?
