This is a beefed up version of a simple song I wrote.  Listen with headphones!!!!

Lyrics:
I've got no money to give you dear
close to a pauper I do fear
but I'll give you sweet kisses
in my lips you'll disappear.

I'm not the prettiest one in town,
but in my wiles you're sure to drown.
I will pick you flowers,
a bouquet for every hour.

And I will love you
and I will love you, to the best of my power.

And I've been known to take good care,
just call my name and I'll be there
holding you so sweetly, we'll resume our love affair.
I'll be much better this time around
now that my feet are on the ground.
Will you call me baby?  Cause I love to hear that sound.

Because I love you
because I love you, you're the best one that I've found.

Tired of calling out your name.
Don't seem to notice much these days.
I hallucinate your skin
against my body, it's a sin.

Now I'm trying to act real tough
but the thing about you, love
is now I know I've lost you
I've lost you, and my heart is all used up.

I tried to love you
I tried to love you, but it never was enough.

And I Will Love You (ft. Allison Emmanuel, Lily Smith And Megan Smillie)

got a little cactus from cvs
but they rolled all around in this fake shitty mess so I picked it all off until it was dressed in its own special clothes now it’s looking the best

and it’s still so perfect in that 
little pot
and it makes me feel like I am less alone
and it makes me feel I am more alive
so thank you cactus friend

pick him up and he hurts your hand
cactus friend
but the sting of his spikes
is just his way of being nice 
who needs real friends?

when you got a cactus friend?

he doesn’t talk but he says a lot 
as he preaches his gospel from his tiny pot
“take care of yourself because if not
you will dry up from inside and be sealed in a box”

and I know that he is right
and the thought of him he helps me sleep at night
and taking care of something that needs nothing more than light and a little bit of water really saved my life

crazy cactus lady

Lyrics:
Natalie marshall wakes up everyday with a beautiful purpose in her brain
she wants to know people wants to know things in every way 
(every way)
Natalie Marshall may not make creme brûlée but she’s best the damn salad maker any day
she was a kline diva in her day 
she makes makes me feel so happy I’m allowed to stay (in her life)

Natalie Marshall may not make creme brûlée but she’s best the damn salad maker any day

she makes makes me feel so happy I’m allowed to stay (in her life)

you are an inspiration to me
you’re good at drawing hair and spaghetti
you can do a front handspring on a trampoline
and this song was so easy to write cuz you’re so special to me

Natalie Marshall just turned 23 
Child stardom didn’t work out unfortunately 
but hey look at our exciting new bachelor’s degree!
can’t wait to heal the earth compassionately 
together like the team we were always meant to be 

I hope today you pet 1,000 dogs
I hope to today you eat some broccoli rabe
I hope today you watch the Parent Trap
and I can’t wait to see you so soon I CAN’T WAIT TO GET YOU BACK!!!!!!

happy birthdirth
