Verse 1
Em
ally wondering,
Em
D
you had probably one of these on your chair,
with a little button stuck to it.
And you probably think,
what on earth is this?
Em
Well, I don't know if
but on the website
Em
D
there's actually a section entitled Words.
And basically it's ramblings and words and
was one of those things
and I just thought
it might be appropriate tonight
because we're doing a quite
an intimate gig
and I think I wrote this
when I was in my early teens
so it's a little bit naive
and you know a little bit young
but anyway I thought
But as you've given me
the gift tonight
of coming to the gig to watch,
and it's a special little button,
because I've got my little button
here on this little chain.
It's about two people who
are really in love,
and they spend every day together.
and when they're apart
the lady gives the man a little button
and he saves them up in a jar
until he's got thousands
of little colourful buttons
and it's just a way of
showing that she cares
and when they're apart
he looks at the buttons
and when she's apart
she looks at her coat
where the buttons are missing
and the buttons missing a coat
and the coats missing a button
so that's what this is about
and I just thought I'd read it to you if that's okay
this is Gather Me Up in Bright Buttons.
Gather me up in bright buttons,
buttons,
not ribbons and bows,
a button for every day
that we love from the day when
we first say hello.
The first I will give you is purple,
my favorite color,
a gift from my coat.
The next will be red
for the deep crimson flush of your lips
gently touching my throat.
The third will be white
for the crisp linen sheets on the bed in which we first lay and gave of
ourselves our innocence lost in the promise to each that we made.
And so, when alone in this wide lonely world,
colliding and playing our part,
a coat will be missing a button
and a button missing a coat.
As the years go by,
more buttons you'll keep,
safe in a pretty glass jar.
Bright, perfect buttons,
a kiss and a wave,
a warm, tender smile from afar.
Each a memory of a day
that we love,
a day that we hold in our heart.
And when the room darkens
and death steals my breath,
I'll touch you,
though you'll never know
As you gather me up in bright buttons
Pressing them hard to your lips
As the tears fall freely from your eyes
And slowly I fall from your grip
As buttons scatter and dance one last time
Like rainfall on well -trodden streets
their melody lost in the rhythm and beat of
the secrets that they'll always keep
and out there still waiting so far but so close alive beyond time and all hope a coat will be missing a button and a button missing a coat time will pass slowly but
I will remain silently by your side till you walk far and free from the darkness till you walk slowly into my light and you gather me up in bright buttons,
buttons not ribbons and bows,
a button for every day that we've loved
from the day when we first
said hello.
And when they come to this old house
and find us all but gone,
bright buttons they'll sweep
with the dust from the floor,
bright buttons still needing a home.
So if you find one, keep it safe,
a coat is missing a button,
and a button still missing a coat.
So gather me up in bright buttons,
buttons, not ribbons and bows,
a button for every day that we love,
from the day when we first say hello.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank
you. Thank
Thank you. you.
Thank Thank Thank You
