Story Behind The Song
I actually wrote the song about the ideal love; it's not about anyone real. I thought, what would I want to say to this person if I had them in my life? I was sitting in my friends apartmaent and looked up to see Daisyhead Maisy, which is a Dr. Seuss book about a silly fun loving bird, sitting on her bookshelf. I started with that feeling and the rest flowed.

Lyrics
Daisyhead Maisy is how I feel
And I?m thinking of my new favorite smell
And it is you
And I?m floating in the sky
On a lucid dreaming high
And everything that has been repetitive
Seems magical and new
I laze the days beside you in the late day shine
Turning minutes into hours
With the hours in your eyes
And I?m happy that it?s me
laying in your company
Living out a dream that?s come to be
a vivid colorful reality
And I am not afraid to admit that I am blinded
By the light you give off when you smile
Even if it?s only for awhile
It?s true
And I stop to wonder why, how strange is life
When there?s not way to explain it
It just happens you can?t name it
So I count it on my fingers
And I blow it to the air
And I follow it until it disappears
Behind your stare
And I am not afraid to admit that I am blinded
By the light you give of when you smile
And it?s you in this Daisyhead lazy moment
That?s caught in time in my mind
Even if it?s only for awhile
It?s true
