Lyrics
You might wake up some mornin'
You may wake up one morning
To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind
Hearing something passing by your window in the wind
And if you're quick enough to rise
If you react quickly
You'll catch a fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadow
You might glimpse a fading shadow
Out on the new horizon
On the new horizon
You may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wings
You may witness the graceful motion of distant wings
And if the sleep has left your ears
If you're fully awake
You might hear footsteps running through an open meadow
You may hear footsteps in an open meadow
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Reassurance not to worry, no harm will come
It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of
It's the speaker pursuing something uncertain
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Envisioning dreams with nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
Pursuing the elusive butterfly of love
You might have heard my footsteps
You might be familiar with the sound of footsteps
Echo softly in the distance through the canyons of your mind
Echoing softly in the canyons of your mind
I might have even called your name
The speaker may have called your name
As I ran searching after something to believe in
While searching for something to believe in
You might have seen me runnin'
You might have observed the speaker running
Through the long-abandoned ruins of the dreams you left behind
Through the abandoned ruins of forgotten dreams
If you remember something there
If you recall something there
That glided past you followed close by heavy breathin'
It passed by with heavy breathing
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Reiteration not to worry, no harm intended
It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of
It's the speaker pursuing something uncertain
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Envisioning dreams with nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
Pursuing the elusive butterfly of love
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Repeating the pursuit of dreams with wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
Chasing the elusive butterfly of love
