Ed Du Bois, IslandHome, Records: Songs/Lyrics/Stories

I was thinking one morning that although my grand daughter Carolyn got my song writing started by saying, Papa I'm Only Dancin', I hadn't written a song really about her. So I played a few cords, thought about her beautiful face; her brilliant red hair, eyebrows and lips that look like they may have been painted by Salvador Dali, and this is what came to me. It might sound a little too religious, too sweet, too grand fatherly that's too bad, it is Carolyn to me! Here it is.

Cords G-C-G-D-G

1
My beautiful Carolyn,
Crafted by the Master's Hand,
Painted with those colors Grand,
For the good of man.

2
I see you in the morning Sun,
I see you when my day is done,
Can't get you out of my mind,
You're one of a kind.

Someday you'll realize,
G
Probably after my demise,
D
How it all fits so fine,
G
In life's perfect rhyme.

At your own uniqueness,

Take your time you're blessed,

You're a special princess.
