lyrics

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH (FAITH LIKE A BUTTERFLY'S WINGS) 
words/music: bill mallonee 

I can tell you're not sure if you wanna go 
and really that's most understandable 
there's whole a lot involved in where you place your bet 
and all these reports? They're a little suspect 

taking a stab at matters of the heart 
shooting in the proverbial dark 
you gotta a prayer like the breath of a little baby 
i wish i knew how you felt about me 

chorus: 
yeah, yeah, yeah...not much i can bring 
yeah, yeah, yeah...i got faith like a butterfly's wing 
yeah, yeah, yeah...there's a world beneath your skin 
For God's sake try to be your own best friend 
yeah, yeah, yeah... 

the autumn branches have been stripped bare 
your breath it freezes & hangs in the air 
the wind it howls over bleak terrain 
if you make it back kid, well, you're never the same 

searching for a secret on this path 
always a little elusive just outta grasp 
but the stones on the way have been worn smooth 
so maybe that'll be some comfort to you

Bill Mallonee: acoustic & electric guitars, vocals
Jake Bradley: bass guitar, bass pedals
