Lyrics from the Debut EP:
learning to love
SPRING 2021
Eubeau
AD LIB:
-What's an Eubeau?
VERSE:
Eubeau that's my lover, Eubeau that's my pal
Eubeau we're together, but just for now
Eubeau hold me closely, Eubeau but not too tight
Eubeau got the kind of love that don't suffocate me through the night
CHORUS:
Ah, Eubeau-woah-ohhh,
Ah, Eubeau,
That's my Eubeau
AD LIB:
-Can you take Eubeau out, and show Eubeau off? What about jealousy?
VERSE:
When me and Eubeau go dancin' you already know
It's that sweet simple kind of romancin' that helps my lovin' grow
My Eubeau's got a silk tie, and silky vest
My Eubeau's got the kind of lovin' that I like best
CHORUS:
Ah, Eubeau-woah-ohhh,
Ah, Eubeau,
That's my Eubeau
AD LIB:
-What's an Eubeau is reallllllllly alllllll about?
VERSE:
Discovering myself, Eubeau, through knowin' you
And Eubeau when our time is spent, oh no I will not be so blue
Just smile at me kindly, Eubeau because you knew
A special part of me exists, Eubeau because I knew you
CHORUS:
Ah, Eubeau-woah-ohhh,
Ah, Eubeau,
That's my Eubeau
Joyfully Alone
VERSE:
Excuse me sir, do you know of a place that I may go
just to be on my own, you see it's
Been some time since I spent the better half of my days stuck in my mind,
and it's prone to change gotta figure in why the roads,
Winds, bends and turns, and maybe someday I'll realize
which roads were better left burned
PRE-CHORUS:
And I know we all return to dust at some point in time
But no path's really lost, not even forever's a measurement of time
CHORUS:
All I know is I don't want to grow old
to be told that I am stuck in my ways
I'll learn something new everyday,
never stay in the same place, life is not a competition or a race
It all ends the same way, and we only win by being our own best friend
VERSE:
Plant a seed hope and pray that maybe someday it may grow
without the sunshine and the rain you can't ever truly
Know, and without the good paired with the evil in this life
how do you expect yourself to
Grow, if you live everyday the same don't be surprised
when you reap exactly what you sew
PRE-CHORUS:
Find the joy in planting some of those seeds for yourself,
What are you nurturing? yeah, Beauty blooms when you tend to the roots within yourself
CHORUS:
What's a garden anyway? '
Cause man-made beauty and flowerbeds all eventually decay
I prefer the wild things, birds that sing
without a predetermined melody
Can it be, we too can fly free if at peace we learn to be
VERSE/OUTRO:
And so the selfless sir, eyes glistening brighter than the sun,
allowed wisdom to fall from his lips and my
ears were stung, by the kind reminder
"Calliope, you're always alone, be it on your own or standing here talkin’…
So just sit and talk to me."
Love & Loss
VERSE:
I just chopped till I got scared by the amount of hair in the sink
As the kettle squealed impatiently begging to know what I think
CHORUS:
Of love and loss at any cost
My heart is warm
But there's a crippling frost
Biting at my mind
VERSE:
I remind myself that I have never lost anything profound
Except my sweet Yaya who preferred her fine music to simple sound
CHORUS:
Whats love and loss at any cost
My heart is warm
But there's a crippling frost
POST-CHORUS:
Biting at my mind
Struggling to fight off the cold with this heart of mine
BRIDGE:
I read a wise woman's musings
She said to lose something everyday
It was suggested as a practice
For the inevitable loss that swirls our way
(We’re gonna lose it all someday)
VERSE:
Ohh but never lose your patience or that impulse to do something kind
All the things we think we own are really just been borrowed and I hope you will find
CHORUS:
That love and loss is always worth the cost
Keep your heart warm
And be gentle to your mind
OUTRO:
Cause' you know, love and loss are always gonna be worth the cost
Heartbreak heals when you learn to be at peace with your mind
I'm Dangerous
INTRO:
You can’t keep me around this town anymore,
I miss when I was new here, life was an open door
They say home is where the heart is
Always beating in my chest, and
That is where it will say, and
I know it’s for the best
CHORUS:
I’m Dangerous, I’m Dangerous
I don’t have a wicked heart
I’m Dangerous, I’m Dangerous
I’ll tear your world apart
I’m Dangerous, I’m Dangerous
Now you’ve been warned
I don’t have an urge for going
But I love to say goodbye
VERSE:
I was born with curly hair and without a care
In the world what people thought of me
They never looked past what the eye could see
Wild flowers bloomin’ in my heart
Sprouted with love right from the start
But I can’t choose one that wouldn’t be much fun for my wild, wild heart,
Oh no, I said I can’t choose one that wouldn’t be much fun for my wild, wild heart
CHORUS:
I’m Dangerous, I’m Dangerous
I cannot tell a lie
I’m Dangerous, and babe I’ll say
You’re just not my kind of guy
I’m Dangerous, I’m Dangerous
Now you’ve been warned
I don’t have an urge for going
But I love to say goodbye
VERSE:
I was born to be free good lovin’ has never controlled me
I just wanna spend your time while you’re wastin’ mine
Yes I’ve got a fickle mind, oh baby, it’s changing all the time
I’m gonna change on a dime, I’m gonna change on a nickel
I’m gonna change on a penny too,
I’m gonna spend your time while I’m changing my mind
On a penny and a dime
CHORUS:
I’m Dangerous, I’m Dangerous
I’ll open up your mind
I’m Dangerous, I’m Dangerous
I’ll leave your love behind
I’m Dangerous, I’m Dangerous
Now you’ve been warned
I don’t have an urge for going
But I love to say goodbye
Hey There (Learning to Love)
VERSE:
Hey there world,
I am a simple girl
Yeah that’s right I’ve got a simple heart and a simple mind
And though you grow more complex
Just remember that we’re all bound by the same ticking-tocking time
Hey there love,
I’ve got you figured out, you’re not a gift from above
Oh no, you have always dwelled deep within me
And though you twist and turn and change
Oh you’re not evil, you’ve just got to flow freely
CHORUS:
If honesty were more important than being right,
Oh, what a world we’d live in
And I’m sure we would be able to forgive ourselves
Verse:
Hey there Pa,
Remember the time you went and risked it all
Only to learn that life is a losing game
But there’s joy in letting go
Else you get drug through the dirt or driven completely insane
Hey there Ma
Remember the time you went and took the fall
Straight down from grace, I’m glad God let you keep that smile on your face
And I respect your need to feel heard,
But don’t you see that the art of listening works both ways
CHORUS:
If honesty were more important than being right,
Oh, what a world we’d live in
And I’m sure we would be able to forgive ourselves
BRIDGE:
Because honesty, is far more important than being right
And it’s a splendid world we live in, but compassion still has pity as it’s evil twin
And we all want to be loved before we learn how to love ourselves
AD LIB:
-we're all waking up doing the same thing- LEARNING HOW TO LOVE-
ourselves, our loved one's when they're being difficult, and ESPECIALLY
those who look differently, believe differently, and have an entirely different set of life circumstances than we do- we're all life long learners of the lessons of unconditional love.
SING ALONG: (ad nauseam)
We’re all learning
How to love
We’re all learning
How to love
We’re all learning
How to love
