She's Shiny! (Lyrics) (Patreon)

I love it when I write a new song. Tonight, I sat down to that. I was hoping for something comedic. I didn't quite get that. Instead, it's a sort of love song from Malcolm Reynolds' perspective.

This is obviously a rough take. But I couldn't help but share!

Do you like? Should I try and get it on the final CD?

* She's shiny! Oh so shiny!Don't say a word. I'm in love with that girlShe's shiny! Oh so shiny!She keeps me spinning round and round in a whirl

She's carryin' the weight of heartache from her past.A-runnin' towards a future that won't lastWhat a beaut'! That girl makes my heart soarShe lights the night even though she's prone to... roar.

Got dressed up for fancy ball in the dark of night.Ain't got to pull my punches, cuz I love to fight.'Fore I knew, things got out of controlI set my sights on makin' it out whole

Sometimes she doesn't like the way I dealSometimes she lets me know with steelSometimes she sets good men on fireClimb aboard and she'll ride up your spire.

I found her in a down and out, dirty placeHer head was down. She was feeling a disgrace.I looked inside her and saw hope in her eyesI knew one day that Firefly would fly!
