Butterflies and Beefstew Lyrics & Tabs by Mike Love
Butterflies and Beefstew
guitar chords lyrics
I woke up this morning
with tears in my eyes,
I never got to say goodbye,
I never got to tell you I,
I've really been trying
to work it out
but all this work is always dragging me down,
feels like I'm always running around.
I just want to see you growing tall,
wanna be there to pick you up when you fall,
and come running whenever you call.
Cause all of these moments they carry me through,
they make me feel warm and fuzzy inside,
and I can't help but swell up with pride.
When I think of the bridges you crossed just to be who you are today.
they make me feel warm and fuzzy inside,
and I can't help but swell up with pride.
When I think of the bridges you crossed just to be who you are today.
The obstacles that stood in your way that you conquered.
And when I get caught up and I need something to cut me back down to size,
I just look in your beautiful eyes
and I realize.
That money comes and money goes
but in this life all I know
is you ain't got nothing
if you ain't got something
called Love.
Life is a moment
a blink of an eye,
if you don't grab it it passes you by,
I never could quite understand why.
I'm just glad I can share it,
share it with you,
and see you do all of the things that you do,
and teach you how to tie up your shoes.
Cause the little things mean everything the smiles you give me give me wings to rise above all this pain
and Love is all that remains
when I hold you.
And these moments we share make it hard to bear the moments we are apart,
they pull at the strings of my heart
and the teardrops start
to fall.
Oh Lord why am I always out working when I should be playing at home with you,
I've spent so much time just running and so now I'm coming home to you.
.
You saved my life,
given me sight,
all that I am belongs to you.
And when I go,
want you to know,
I'll be watching over you.
