about

This acoustic piece was specially written for Courtney, Gazza’s first born grand-daughter. It is a great gift if there ever was one.

This is a one-take masterpiece, delicate finger-picked in 3/4 time on "Clementine", Gazza’s warm and smooth sounding Walden CE3030 guitar, with a haunting pedal-steel style solo from Noor at the close.
 
Look out for the little riddle hidden in the lyrics. See if you can find Courntney's full name?

lyrics

For The Little One (Courtney's Song)

Colour me with your rainbows,
Over and over again,
Under blues skies, the blue of you eyes,
Roses bloom at the sound of your name.

Tie me down with your silk ribbons,
Never free me from your invisible spell.
Even I cannot see what your world is to be,
You kiss, but you’ll never tell.

Rainy days won’t keep me away,
Or make me run and hide.
Smile for me and walk with me,
Ever and always by my side….

Take me to a world full of wonder,
Of places to play and to hide.
Let’s laugh and sing, let the moment bring,
Let me always be by your side,
Ever and always by your side,
Yeah, always by your side!
