Lyrics

Butterfly
Copyright 2026 Diana Rasmussen

[Verse 1]
When I glimpse a butterfly, memories of you take flight,
A fleeting presence, a beautiful light.
This world feels so foreign, I wander alone,
Regret lingers for the farewells left unsown.

[Verse 2]
Like a butterfly, you danced through my days,
Here for a heartbeat, then lost in the haze.
How I wish for wings to soar and reminisce,
Longing for the moments we'll forever miss.

[Chorus]
I'd chase you to Heaven's embrace,
Hear the whispers of love in grace.
Watch your worries fade away,
When the Father called His butterfly home,
When the Father called His butterfly home.

[Verse 3]
You rise above the world's heavy chains,
Flying free, unburdened by pains.
God gathered all your tears, tenderly so,
Transforming them into prayers that flow.

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You broke the mold, emerged anew,
In every transformation, a piece of you.
I await the moment we'll meet in the sky,
Listening for the trumpet, our spirits will fly.

[Chorus]
