Strawberry Letter 23
(words and music by Shuggie Otis)
Hello, my love, I heard a
Kiss from you,
Red magic satin
Playing near too.
All through the morning rain I gaze
The sun doesnt shine,
Rainsbows and waterfalls run
Through my mind.
In the garden I see
West purple shower bells and tea,
Orange birds and river cousins
Dressed in green.
Pretty music I hear
So happy and loud,
Blue flower echo from
A cherry cloud.
Feel sunshine sparkle pink and blue,
Playgrounds will laugh if you
Try to ask "Is it cool?"
If you arrive and dont see me,
Im going to be.
With my baby
I am free
Flying in her arms
Over the sea.
Stained window yellow candy screen
See speakers of kite
With velvet roses diggin
Freedom flight.
A present from you,
Strawberry letter twenty-two,
The music plays; I sit in
For a few.

Ice
Cold Daydream
(words and music by Shuggie Otis)
I looked at you (girl)
I saw a smile;
For my love, you said,
Youd walk a mile.
Today I see your face,
You wear a frown;
Now youre tellin me that
Im a clown
Whats the reason for this
Sudden change?
I never thought that you would
Act so strange.
You say that Im a bore and
We should part,
So you can go and make a
Brand new start.
You laughed at me and then I
Almost cried;
You hurt my heart so bad
I had to hide.
Im gettin tired of listenin
To your talk
I think Ill go outside and
Take a walk;
Took my guitar and got up
Off the floor;
I must have a dozen off while you
Were next door.
My minds at ease now that I
Know youre on my side;
That ice-cold daydream took me
For an ugly ride.
