Butterfly Angel

Crystal clear in my imagination
Is the time and space where I last saw you
Spreading wings, perched upon higher ground
With your beauty you were testing the wind

Crashing through the waves uncertain
Guided by the of fear growing
Close to nothing real
You drifted away
But the blossom of your love lingered on

By the light of the sunrise
I knew you were here
I followed your footprints
Through the effervescent sands of long lost times

I remember the feeling
As you fluttered away
You were a butterfly angel
But I fell in love with you upon my shoulder
There was nothing I could do but search the whole world over again

That won’t keep me from you
It won’t keep me from you

Now, I rest by the fire
In the soft glare there’s the air of hope sparkling in your eyes
And I know where ever you are
Up above the stars are the same
And what we were will always remain
There will come the day I find your touching stone
You’re just a touching stone away

By the light of the sunrise
I knew you were here
I followed your footprints
Through the effervescent sands of long lost times

I remember the feeling
As you fluttered away
You were a butterfly angel
But I fell in love with you upon my shoulder
There was nothing I could do but search the whole world over again

That won’t keep me from you
It won’t keep me from you
That won’t keep me from you
It won’t keep me from you
