Butterfly
Butterfly settle softly and take me to the bridge of sighs
Float beyond all the madness and sleep inside your Zen reply
Turn the silence over and rest beneath the tree that lies
Over the sad confusion that takes away your breath at night.
Cry me to the moon and navigate your sweet reply
Youre trying hard not to laugh or wrestle with the inevitable goodbye
Its always been a solo flight as I tumble through this world at night
But you can rest your head beneath stars if that will help to ease your fright.
(break)
As the first rays of sun hit the sky to celebrate complete surprise
You jolt me back with a laugh and Im startled
to rub this world from out my eyes
I wonder if Ill ever feel rested whilst I work this shift of right
Well I can always sleep when Im dead
As long as I greet this life with love and not a kiss goodnight.
