    BLACK BUTTERFLY (a.k.a. Ebony Moonbeams)
    Music by George Cables
    Lyrics by Gillian Margot

    Ebony, golden hues, blacks and blues
    They’re leaving clues
    Bright moonbeams too… inviting you
    To play along …for a song …in a
    Nocturnal symphony
    In from light years away
    The essence of night………
    (night into day)

    Asleep in a deep reverie
    Black butterfly
    Eclipsing light… tonight
    Effervescent streams,
    Dancing dreams,
    All-abiding moonbeams
    On a magical flight
    A bathing light ………..
    (beau-ty of night)

    As I sleep in my deep reverie
    Black butterfly
    Eclipsing light… tonight
    Effervescent streams,
    Dancing dreams,
    All-abiding moonbeams
    On a magical flight
    A bathing light ………..
    (beau-ty of night)

    LYRICS

    Yesterday's Blues
    By Gillian Margot

    My Baby’s always busy
    He says he got so much work to do
    I said my Baby’s always busy, ‘cause he’s got so much hard work to do
    That’s right he’s working hard on a woman
    And playing me for a fool

    Now I know better
    than to call my Baby home
    Yes, I know better than to call that cheatin’ man to come home
    ‘cause when he comes he’ll just be cryin’ .. and
    I rather spend my night alone

    He says he’s coming home tomorrow
    And this time he’s gonna stay
    That’s right, he’s coming home tomorrow and this time he’s gonna stay
    Well, he might come back to me tomorrow
    But I was gone yesterday...
