Butterflies Are Free
I knew the day you met me
I could love you if you let me
Though you touched my cheek
And said how easy
You'd forget me
You said,
"Butterflies are free
And so are we"
On that velvet morning
When our love was forming
I said it wouldn't hurt me
If you left without a warning
I said,
"Butterflies are free,
And so are we"
And you made me understand
Right from the start
I could hold your gentle hand
But never hold your heart
So, why the crying?
Were our brave words just lying
When we both agreed
There'd be no tears in our goodbying
Butterflies are free
Oh why aren't we?
