Song For A Desperate Lover

BUTTERFLY

When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It's easy to succumb
to overwhelming fears
inside

Blindly I imagine I could
Keep you under glass

Now I understand to hold you
I must open my hands
And watch you rise

[Chorus:]
Spread your wings and
prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly we're meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled
Or their spirit dies
You have given me the courage
To be all that I can
And truly feel your heart will
Lead you back to me when you're
Ready to land

[Chorus]

I can't pretend these tears
Aren't overflowing steadily
I can't prevent this hurt from
Almost overtaking me
But I will stand and say goodbye
For you'll never be mine
Until you know the way
it feels to fly

[Chorus]

So flutter through the sky
Butterfly
Spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
