Lyrics:

Girl :
Maybe I think we’re an item
Maybe I think we’re a deal
Maybe I’m not sure if I’m dreaming
How do I know how you feel?

Maybe it’s already over
Even before it has begun
Maybe I think that I’ve found something special
Maybe I’m the only one

I think that I could try
To write a song for you
But I’m afraid if I try
maybe I’ll find
that you never wanted me to
and then I’d feel like a fool
I’d feel like a fool.

Boy:
Look at you
Lookin’ shy
Lookin’ nervous
Lookin’ pretty

I never seen nobody light up a whole city like that before
Oh but then
I’ve not had much experience 
With beauty like yours

I got the stars
I got the moon
I got the planets on a platter
And yet my tongue is tied
And teeth are all a chatter
I know it may
Be too late
And I have never even said the things that I have wanted to say
To say

Both:
I think that I 
Could try
To write a song for you
But I’m afraid if I try 
Maybe I’ll find 
That you never wanted me to
And then I’d feel like a fool
Oh I’d feel like a fool




Song For You/DUET (Noni Culotta Original)


Song Title: Porch Swing
Author: Noni Culotta
Year Written: 2007-2010
Lyrics:

On a porch swing
You lose everything
The sounds of the city fly away.

But the warm breeze
The azaleas and roses
Aromas of springtime stay.

And above me
Is the window of your old bedroom
And it shines with the memories that you left

And I wrote you 
A reply to your last letter
It’s a song for the summer

And it goes,
Don’t it all seem so strange?
How is it that time slips away from us—
When every morning brings a brand new day for us
Every morning brings a brand new day

Look above your head
Wherever you are
The sky will be there
No matter how far away you are from me

And I have sent my love on wisps of cloud
To shade you when the sun is out
May it let your freckles be

And like the old song says,
I know someday we’ll find a place for us
And it isn’t all that far away for us
No it isn’t all that far away

On this old bench 
Rockin in the breeze, 
I know I’m not alone here
Underneath where you climbed the maple tree

Oh, but don’t it all seem so strange
How is it that time slips away from us
When every morning brings a brand new day for us
Every morning brings a brand new day?

And the chimes ring
In the glow of spring
It’s a song for the summer
From the seat of a porch swing.

“Wildflowers” Lyrics
Music and Lyrics by Noni Culotta and Sophia Holtz-Elliot

I laid you down in a field of wild flowers
 in the afternoon
And we drank a lot and we
passed the hours 
singing all your favorite tunes.

You said to me you would always be my lover
Then we sought shade ‘neath the boughs of the grand magnolia
Easy like a river
lovin’ you in Carolina summer

Lit up the back porch
 threw a party for our friends and family
 when the sun was gone
And in the orchard lit the lanterns 
hung them on the branches 
danced until the dawn.

You held me close, whispered girl your are my true love
We drifted off to the hum of the summer junebug
Sleeping through the sunrise
 nestled ‘neath the Carolina morning sky.


Tell your momma, tell your pa
I’ll be headed north on the first of fall
And they can have you back for one more year
‘til I return for you in the summertime
I’ll be back for you in the summertime 

And I’ll lay you down in field of wild flowers 
freshly new in bloom
And we’ll sing the day away
 laugh the day away – baby anything that you want to
I’ll hold you tight, lean your head upon my shoulder 
And it’ll fit just right, just the way that you remember
Just hold on,
love of mine.
Won’t be long ‘til I return for you 
and Carolina.
