"Butterfly Spirit"

written by Darius & Tom Howe

Wondering how you will swim
Out of this blue oblivion
Wake up in the morning
Wipe the dust from your eyes
When you open the curtains
I can see you're still hurting
But you don't ever want them to know
You don't want to be theirs
Like you've run out of air
And you're suddenly up for release

You open the window
Feel the kiss of the breeze
You are free
You're not weak
One day you'll see
The way your love's your saving grace

You spread your wings and reach high
I wish that I could be like you
When you're bathing in the calm before
The storm
And then you soar with bird's wings
You fly like a butterfly
You've got a butterfly spirit

Wondering if you can hide
From the black you feel inside
Memories lie scattered on the floor
Like petals
And you scream for light
In your mind
You're looking for brighter days
Moonlit sunrise
Aren't we all ?

You need some space
That's ok
I will wait
My love for you's my saving grace

You spread your wings and reach high
I hope one day I could be like you
When you're bathing in the calm before
The storm
And then you soar with bird's wings
You fly like a butterfly
You've got a butterfly spirit

Oh
And there's enough life in it
To blind my sky
Butterfly spirit you're burning
Don't you know I feel it
Life's all wrong
But we're still young
There'll be a tomorrow
And I still love you

You spread your wings and reach high
I wish one day I could be like you
When you're bathing in the calm before
The storm
And then you soar with bird's wings
You fly like a butterfly
You spread your wings in the sky
I wish I was like you
When you're bathing in the calm before
The storm
And then you soar with bird's wings
You fly like a butterfly
Oh you fly like a butterfly

You've got a butterfly spirit
With so much light in it
