Elusive Butterfly
Chasing Love's Elusive Butterfly: A Poetic Journey
Lyrics
You might wake up some mornin'
You may awaken one morning
To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind
To the noise of something passing by your window carried by the wind
And if you're quick enough to rise
If you act quickly enough to get up
You'll catch a fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadow
You might catch a brief sight of a person's disappearing outline
Out on the new horizon
On the distant horizon
You may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wings
You might perceive the graceful movement of faraway wings
And if the sleep has left your ears
And if you're fully awake
You might hear footsteps running through an open meadow
You could hear footsteps rushing across an open grassy field
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Do not worry, there's no danger
It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of
It's just me pursuing something uncertain or unknown
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Throughout my dreams filled with amazing things
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
I am chasing the radiant, hard-to-catch butterfly representing love
You might have heard my footsteps
You might have perceived the sound of my footsteps
Echo softly in the distance through the canyons of your mind
Echoing faintly in the faraway canyons of your thoughts
I might have even called your name
I might have even called out your name
As I ran searching after something to believe in
While I hurriedly searched for something to have faith in
You might have seen me runnin'
You might have witnessed me running
Through the long-abandoned ruins of the dreams you left behind
Through the deserted remains of the aspirations you abandoned
If you remember something there
If you recall something there
That glided past you followed close by heavy breathin'
That swiftly passed you followed closely by labored breathing
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Do not worry, there's no danger
It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of
It's just me pursuing something uncertain or unknown
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Throughout my dreams filled with amazing things
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
I am chasing the radiant, hard-to-catch butterfly representing love
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Throughout my dreams filled with amazing things
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
I am chasing the radiant, hard-to-catch butterfly representing love
