Original Song - Flutterby (Collaboration with @Rusty-Jernigan)

in #dsound7 years ago (edited)


Big post today!

Flutterby is the first significant musical collaboration between me and @Rusty-Jernigan. We wrote this piece to be an enchanting dance of two haunting melodies, each presenting itself individually before weaving together upward into the sky. A musical depiction of butterflies in flight.

I want to thank you all for following as I have posted, one by one, each song from my first album. It has been a joy sharing my music and thoughts with you these last few months. I have not written any articles since deciding to release my music here on Steemit, however, articles will return! Before I get back to writing articles for you, though, I would like to continue posting music by sharing with you the music of Doctor Jungle Cat - the independent Rock band for which I play keyboards.

It will be a blast sharing that project with you. I look forward to returning to writing articles and conversing with you as the music I have to present is slowly compiled here. Please enjoy this grand finale from my American Daydream series featuring music & lyrics by @cosmicvibration along with percussion played by, vocals sang by, and string quartet composed by Steemit's very own @Rusty-Jernigan.


She's a dancer
My romancer
Won't you glance her

Can I chance her?
Will I answer?
When she says,
"Hold Me Closer"
"Kiss Me Softer"
"Feel my laughter"
"Hold my hand"

Touch her Hair
And you're there


She's a canvas
Understand this
She can't be left out
In the rain

She's a brushstroke
For the heartbroke
And she never needs to lift a finger
Not to linger
Is impossible
When she says
"Hold me closer"


She's a butterfly
And she flutters by


She's a traveller
Not to have her
Is not unusual

She's a diver
That's why I've heard

But she's afraid to jump in
That's her sin


She's a butterfly
And She flutters by


She's a dancer
My romancer
My entrancer

Can I chance her
I'll enchant her
When she says,
"Hold me closer"
"Kiss me softer"
"Feel my laughter"
"Hold my hand"

She's a diver
That's why I've heard

But she's afraid to jump in

"Hold me closer"
"Kiss me softer"
"Feel my laughter"
"Hold my hand"

"Hold me closer"
"Kiss me softer"
"Feel my lover"
"Hold my hand"

"Hold me closer"
"Kiss me deeper"
"Feel my lover"
"Take my hand"

Touch her hair
