Butterflies Dragonflies

about

Mellow piano ballad orchestrated with synthesized instruments

lyrics

Butterflies, dragonflies
Drifting through the lazy golden moments of the sun
And I don’t know why it should be
But when you turn around, they’re gone
Leaving you to wonder why
You’re not as free as their beauteous lives
Still it’s your eyes that see them as they fly
Butterflies, dragonflies

Hummingbirds, crickets’ songs
Singing through the lazy golden moments of the dawn
And I don’t know why it should be
But when you turn around, they’re done
Leaving you to wonder why
You’re not as free as their sweet harmonies
Still it’s your ears that hear their sweet song
Butterflies, dragonflies

For butterflies, dragonflies have no wishes at all
They’re like the leaves of autumn
That turn gold and then fall
While you and I live through the seasons
To see them all
None is the wiser for the passing of the years
Than we who see life the way it appears
Through joy and through sorrow
Till peace comes to call
All the journeys of the soul
It is we who see them all
It is we who see them
All the butterflies, dragonflies
Butterflies, dragonflies
