Lyrics

Calypso Jane
© 2024 Michael Hanson Cantwell

Verse 1:
They call me Calypso Jane, the odd one in the crowd,
I wear my shoes on different feet, and I hum way too loud.
I keep a pocket full of seashells, paint my hands with stars,
I'm always chasing something strange, no matter near or far.

Pre-Chorus:
I'll build a kite out of paper dreams,
Catch the sun and stitch the seams.
If you see me dancing in the rain,
Don't ask why--just call me Calypso Jane.

Chorus:
I'm the girl with a heart in a hurricane,
Living life wild, untamed, insane.
I'll flip the world upside down with a laugh,
Color outside the lines, skip the path.
I'm Calypso Jane, the one you'll never know,
Catch me if you can, I'm always on the go.

Verse 2:
I drink my tea with marbles in the cup,
Whistle with the birds till the sun comes up.
I'll write you a poem on a watermelon rind,
Paint the sky purple just to pass the time.

Pre-Chorus:
I talk to flowers like they're my best friends,
Ride the wind when the road dead-ends.
Got a map that leads nowhere, but I don't care,
'Cause Calypso Jane's already there.

Chorus:
I'm the girl with a heart in a hurricane,
Living life wild, untamed, insane.
I'll flip the world upside down with a laugh,
Color outside the lines, skip the path.
I'm Calypso Jane, the one you'll never know,
Catch me if you can, I'm always on the go.

Bridge:
If you love me, I'll stick by your side,
Hold your hand through every tide.
I'll give you my heart, every beat, every part,
Love you with everything I am from the start.
I may be wild, but I'm steady and true,
Calypso Jane's here--only for you.

Chorus:
I'm the girl with a heart in a hurricane,
Living life wild, untamed, insane.
I'll flip the world upside down with a laugh,
Color outside the lines, skip the path.
I'm Calypso Jane, the one you'll never know,
Catch me if you can, I'm always on the go.

Chorus:
I'm the girl with a heart in a hurricane,
Living life wild, untamed, insane.
I'll flip the world upside down with a laugh,
Color outside the lines, skip the path.
I'm Calypso Jane, the one you'll never know,
Catch me if you can, I'm always on the go.

Outro:
If you love me, I'll stick by your side
