Dog Butterfly lyrics

This hot night wind is mine, I know
This gust of love ain't no liar
Steamed up, blown up, stoked from below
I'm a ready to cook with fire
She cattin' around to catch you, man
And butters you up to buy her
Darling, she's just a flash in the pan.
Don't you want to cook with fire?

I'm talkin' 'bout kickin' the role
I want to give you whole thing
Yes, she gonna burn ya

There I was with the old man
Stranded again so off I'd ran
A young world crashing around me
No possibilities of getting what I need
He looked at me and smiled
Said "No, no, no, no, no child.
See the dog and butterfly. Up in the
Air he like to fly." Dog and butterfly
Below she had to try. She roll back down
To the warm soft ground laughing
She don't know why, she don't know why

Inside out again
I had to spread it a little thin
I work and work and try
And try
And try and try to shine
That's fine but

It's high time
Break and take the freedom
My time
To live like I feel
To let down and let myself be
It's high time for me
High time for me
High time for me

Darling look at you
I can see what you been through
You been bought and sold
And pushed and rolled

I just found out
It's been too long now
The word is out
Time before didn't they take us hook and punker?
Their "jive alive" lines
They were funk
They were hijinx, hijinx, hijinx tonight
We all know better but we just might

Pullin' this off it's gonna take some
Big time schemin'
A fast tap dance, our feet'll be steamin'
Hijinx, hijinx, hijinx, alright
Hi, hi, hijinx, yeah, yeah

Look at me, the answer is so clear
Lying close by the fire place
I wish that you could see yourself this way
My love, with the firelight upon your face.
Ain't it strange how love put things together?
One like you, someone like me.
But no one ever moved me like the way you do
And held against you, love I am weak, oh yeah

Before us now, the dream of love is playin'

No wind when I took the watch
My ship was still and waitin'
I lay on that mirrored sky
A restless sail or waitin'
I closed my eyes said the
Words of will for the gentle
Breathin' that moves the seas
Make my sails fill
Whisper waves cloud the glass
Awake at last like a lover
It rushed around the talkin' sweet
Roll over, roll over, roll over
And in my ear he blew his name

Fire eye flashin' bright
Come again into my dream tonight
Don't fade away when the mornin' comes
Fadin' in the sun
Nada One, Nada One
Moonshone silver in your eye
Shown on my midnight blues from the sky
Paint the night with love till the burnin' sun
See the colors run
Nada One, Nada One

Mornin' come down on me
Wanderin' through the endless street
Nobody seein' where I've been

Quite some time, I been sittin' it out
Didn't take no chances
I was a pris'ner of doubt.
I knocked down the wailin' wall
Ain't no sin
Got the feel of fortune; deal me in
Comin' straight on for you. You made my mind.
Now I'm stronger. Now I'm comin' through
Straight on, straight on for you
Straight on for you.

Now I know I got to play my hand
