Just a guy who plays guitar and sings... Go fig...
Just me and my guitar... Unless there's more... Then it's me, my guitar and more...

Story behind the song
Ahm... I used to go to this tea house a lot for their chicken bowls. Anywho... One of the girls there was cool, so she friended my band on myspace. Because of this, I caught one of her title thingers that said, "Don't buy me flowers, give me butterflies"... I thought that sounded cool, so I wrote a song about it.
Lyrics
Verse 1 She’s the kind of person That I kind of know a little bit But don’t know a thing about and yet Still feel as if I do Now I don’t mean to say we’re soul mates Or something of that sort I simply mean that if I saw her on the street I could easily introduce her to A friend of mine Verse 2 Seems to me that she’s a dreamer But not quite dreaming like I do Her dreams to me are abstract things That I’ve no way to experience Yes I meant just what I said there We don’t communicate much at all So I really wouldn’t know a thing About from where her dreams are sent But that’s okay Chorus She’s a beautiful kind of Strange personality That I can appreciate It goes along with my Odd way of thinking That makes me wonder why she’d write Don’t buy me flowers Give me butterflies Verse 3 Now I don’t like to give flowers Although many enjoy to Pick them from the ground and watch them die To symbolize so many things Passion’s here today and gone the next Moved on to something new So give a rose for passion And pray you passion it’ll bring Chorus Bridge one Butterfly oh flutter by I wonder why she’d want to try some Could it be she enjoys that feeling In her tummy? Stand on by and watch her try To catch a little butterfly And from the sky the fly shall land Only on what it deems yummy Instrumental Chorus Bridge 2 Did you know that butterflies have taste buds in their feet? And we know that butterflies like flowers that are oh so sweet Think through this with me my friend for this what I wonder why She would not want something so nice where might just land a butterfly?
