Elusive Butterfly

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
You might wake up some morningTo the sound of somethingmoving past your window in the windAnd if you're quick enough to riseYou'll catch the fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadowOut on the new horizonYou may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wingsAnd if the sleep has left your earsYou might hear footsteps running through an open meadowDon't be concerned, it will not harm youIt's only me pursuing something I'm not sure ofAcross my dreams, with nets of wonderI chase the bright elusive butterfly of loveYou might have heard my footstepsEcho softly in the distance through the canyons of your mindI might have even called your nameAs I ran searching after something to believe inYou might have seen me runnin'Through the long abandonned ruinsof the dreams you left behindIf you remember something thereThat glided past you followed close by heavy breathingDon't be concerned, it will not harm youIt's only me pursuing something I'm not sure ofAcross my dreams, with nets of wonderI chase the bright elusive butterfly of loveAcross my dreams, with nets of wonderI chase the bright elusive butterfly of loveAcross my dreams, with nets of wonderI chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
