Butterfly

Butterfly

Oh butterfly how can you spread your wings

How bright

Wings that have holes that are still able to fly 

Eyes that are closed but know how to guide

Rare to catch easy to hide 

Oh butterfly

You glide so gentle across the water 

When your wings are wet 

Your flap them even harder 

Hard to go up 

But you refuse to go down

Oh butterfly

Flying around and around

You have been flipped up side down

Backwards and around again

Some how you still have a mind and a heart

And a face that is recognized as a friend

Nothing can break you

Nothing would make you fall

I believe you are to good for us all

But you never look down

Only up 

Even at night you would rather fly blind then to stop from finding what's really up

Up is a place where you have never been 

Yet you are sure you will find it 

Not now but when

You never know but that never stops your flow 

I have finally found you

I know you leave soon

Oh butterfly 

Take me with you show me the sun

Show me the rainbow

Show me whats on the brighter side of things

Because I'm always underneath

Oh butterfly

How high can I fly? 

Help my dark wings become bright 

Heal my holes because I'm not like you 

I can't keep flying when the air goes through

The holes in your wings seem to make you brighter 

The holes in mine feel a lot more lighter

When I see your face that's just want you do 

You make me feel light on my feet 

Making me feel like I can get through

Oh butterfly where are you going? 

Your way to special to let go 

It's way to hard to find one more

One more butterfly like you 

I doubt I'll find another one to help me get through

Oh butterfly where are you?
