Butterfly

Butterfly

Came into our room

One summer night

Lit the gloom

And our hearts took flight

You and I

And our butterfly

Two wings

Such pretty things

I still recall

I close my eyes

To a waterfall

Why, oh, why

Baby butterfly

One day

We’ll follow you into the garden

We’ll lay down flowers in the rain

Where life would never be the same

That day

You flew away and left us changed

Who could have known

You’d leave more

Than life could give

One day

We’ll follow you into the garden

We’ll lay our flowers in the rain

Where life would never be the same

And someday

We’ll know where life goes into colour

And everyone we’ve loved before

Will take us through

Butterfly

Came into our room

One summer night

Lit the gloom

And our hearts took flight

You and I

And our butterfly
