The Third Time I'm Posting this Reina Del Cid Song. Easily my favorite Cover
and my Favorite among the 39 Songs I've Heard from this incredible Young Woman.

Filmed at Jo Jo's in Oceanville, New Jersey by Bassist Ken Sooy.


"Goodbye Butterfly"

For you the silver lining rules the sky
like a reigning buddha in your eyes
The glass is never on its way to empty
but I'm frightened dear that someday soon it will be

Ah,but you can't take me with you
'cause I can't get that high
but I will always miss you
Goodbye, butterfly

For you the flowers grow but never die
and comets are just friendly passers-by
It's easy to be brave among the darkness
for one who doesn't notice when the sun sets

Ah, but you can't take me with you
'cause I can't get that high
but I will always miss you
Goodbye, butterfly

If tragedy should fall among the masses
You'd simply mark the map
and move to greener grasses
You're rarely down to earth enough to probe it
Ah,but you looked so damn beautiful in orbit

Ah, but you can't take me with you
'cause I can't get that high
but I will always miss you
Goodbye, butterfly
