"Butterflies Were Everywhere"

Music/Lyrics by John Kelly Wilson

Verse
We've all seen the blue
Of a cloudless sunny day
So you know what I mean bout the color of her eyes, no more need to explain

Brown hair to her shoulders with a tiny hint of gold
Cut off jeans, t shirt, sun kissed skin
She put on a summer show

Chorus
The Butterflies were everywhere
When you looked at that girl
Frozen in your mind for all time
She was summertime

The Butterflies were everywhere
When you looked at that girl
Frozen in your mind for all time
That girl was summertime

Verse
Days at the beach, warm nights under summer stars
What seemed to last forever, now out of reach and feels so very far

You wonder why you said goodbye
Know you'll always have to care
Because every time you think of that girl
Those butterflies are still there

Chorus
The Butterflies were everywhere
When you looked at that girl
Frozen in your mind for all time
She was summertime

The Butterflies were everywhere
When you looked at that girl
Frozen in your mind for all time
That girl was summertime

Bridge
The feelings make me smile and yet at the same time want to cry
She's just a memory now for the rest of my life
A haunting that will always take me back in time
And tease what could have been but can never satisfy

Chorus
The Butterflies were everywhere
When you looked at that girl
Frozen in your mind for all time
She was summertime

The Butterflies were everywhere
When you looked at that girl
Frozen in your mind for all time
That girl was summertime
That girl was summertime
That girl was summertime
