Elusive Butterfly
Chasing Love's Elusive Butterfly: Unveiling the Meaning Behind the Melody
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 moving outside your window in the wind
And if you're quick enough to rise
If you're quick to rise
You'll catch a fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadow
You may catch a glimpse of someone's fading shadow
Out on the new horizon
On the new horizon, you might see the motion of distant wings
You may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wings
And if you're fully awake
And if the sleep has left your ears
You might hear footsteps running through an open meadow
You might hear footsteps running through an open meadow
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Assurance that the presence won't cause harm
It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of
It's the singer pursuing something uncertain
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Using dream-like nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
Chasing the elusive butterfly of love
You might have heard my footsteps
Your footsteps might have been heard softly echoing
Echo softly in the distance through the canyons of your mind
In the distance through the canyons of the mind
I might have even called your name
The singer might 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 seen the singer running
Through the long-abandoned ruins of the dreams you left behind
Through the ruins of the dreams you abandoned
If you remember something there
If you recall something there
That glided past you followed close by heavy breathin'
That glided past you followed by heavy breathing
Don't be concerned, it will not harm you
Assurance again that the presence won't cause harm
It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of
It's the singer pursuing something uncertain
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Using dream-like nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
Chasing the elusive butterfly of love
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
Reiteration of chasing with dream-like nets
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
Continuing to chase the elusive butterfly of love in dreams
