BUTTERCUP

c. Kerripowerssongs, BMI

There's barking in the moonlight and shadows on the fringe

Papa turned the bed down but I ain't jumpin' in

I got to go

Wanna go someplace where the dogs won't bite

Too much wreckage here

Can't feel my buttercup

First you say you love me now you're just not sure

I'm tired of sweeping breadcrumbs

Off your kitchen floor

I got to go

Wanna lay myself down in a field of love

Leave this wreckage here

Find my buttercup

BRIDGE: You know there's nothing wrong with change

And Darlin', something's never change

In the hours before the daylight I'm dusting off the road

Stepping over barbwire into pastures overgrown

A lovely sight

I can feel the dew drops between my toes

Waiting for the sunshine to fill my buttercup

Lord, there's plenty sunshine here to fill me up
