Let's run away and drink milkshakes all day...'

There is a Cape Town based singer named Matthew Mole, that plays the most beautiful Folk/Indie tunes that my ears have heard in a long time. For me, his music is the melodic equivalent of Prozac, it just makes me so very happy. Whenever I put his CD on, it always gets my head bopping and my toes tapping. A huge thumbs up to amazing local talent.
Rumor has it that Matthew will be doing a gig at Unit 11 on Thursday the 24th of Feb. Guess who is going to be in the front row singing along? ME!


Below are the lyrics to one of my favourite songs from the Matthew Mole album:

Roses are red

And your eyes are blue

And you know that I don't

Have the slightest of clues

But let's run away

And drink milkshakes all day

And I'll sing you this song

From my heart

From the start


You'll close your eyes
And I'll close mine too
When sharing a pillow is something we do
And I'll take your hand
And we'll both understand
Goodnight

Love is made of helpless butterflies

Let's fall in to the moments they provide
I'm unfolding my heart for you


I only wish that you'd think of me too
When the days we'll grow old
'Cause I'll still think of you
And there's so much to say
And though I'm kind of shy
I'll sing you this song
From my heart

Love is made of helpless butterflies

Let's fall in to the moments they provide

I'm unfolding my heart for you

And I fear that you'll never really hear

This song I wrote for you

So I'll leave my heart upon my sleeve

And I'll hope you feel it too

Love is made of helpless butterflies

All the more to look into your eyes
