Lyrics
I'll just flutter
I'll exhibit erratic movement
Like a moth
Comparable to a moth's behavior
As I fly
While in flight
Around your porchlight
Around the illumination of your porch
Cause I'd stutter
Because I would stumble
If I tried
If I attempted
To say what I see
To express what I perceive
When I look in your eyes
When I gaze into your eyes
I'll just mutter
I'll only speak indistinctly
Something wry
Saying something humorously ironic
I'd say what I meant
I would convey my true thoughts
If I just had more time
If I had more time
I'll just flutter
I'll display erratic movement
Like a moth
Similar to a moth's behavior
I'll just flutter
Reiteration of fluttering
I'll just flutter
-Every time I think that I have found something I can hold
Each time I believe I've found something graspable
It always slips through the tips of my fingers
It consistently eludes my grasp
My finger tips ah the tips of my fingers my finger
Emphasis on the elusiveness of what is found
Every time I think that I have found something I can hold
Reiteration of the difficulty of holding onto something
Oh it always slips
Always slipping away
Yeah it always slips
Emphasizing the recurrent nature of things slipping away
Ill just flutter
Reiteration of erratic movement
Like a moth
Similar to a moth's behavior
As I fly
While in flight
Around your porchlight
Around the illumination of your porch
I'll just flutter
Reiteration of fluttering
Like a moth
Similar to a moth's behavior
As I fly
While in flight
Around your porchlight
Around the illumination of your porch
your light
Emphasizing the specific light mentioned
your light
Reiteration of the porchlight as a focal point
