Butterfly words and music © 2004 Heidi Huettner

Chorus:
Butterfly, please don?t cry on your wings and get them wet
I know you don?t see yourself as a butterfly just yet
You?re used to the confines of your safe cocoon
There?s a whole world you just met
Butterfly, Baby, Baby, please don?t cry

Verse 1:
By yourself you were lonely
But you put yourself to work
You broke yourself down to the smallest part
And you barely went berserk
You couldn?t have known your fate
When you ate your weight
In leaves in those early days
The caterpillar?s gone for good
But you don?t think you should
Forget all those earthly ways

Chorus

Verse 2:
Now you?re free to fly high
And kiss the flowers in your path
Choices multiply geometrically
Like they do in spatial math
The further you get from here
The more you?ll come to revere
Your connection to your soul
Use it to get yourself back
Revive those feelings you lack
If you feel anything less than whole

Chorus (remove/substitute with 8 bar solo)

Bridge:
The further you get from here
The more you?ll come to revere
Your connection to your soul
Well you?ve got nothing to fear
Your autopilot will steer you
To the place that makes you whole

Chorus
