The Butterfly

Story Behind The Song

Inspired by the book 'Papillon', I felt that what Papillon was doing was what we are all doing - searching for our own place of personal peace within this very short life that we have on this planet.

Song Description

This is a story seemingly about a butterfly, but in fact it is about almost anyone on this earth who is constantly searching for their own personal freedom and their own special soulmate

Lyrics

The Butterfly

Fly, butterfly - and spread your lovely wings
You're born to live, not bound by earthly things
Dreams in the night may haunt you as you fly
But your dreams are your wings, sweet butterfly

Butterfly, tell me how you left your silken cage
Were you born to be free or to amaze me as you

Fly Butterfly - where will your journey end?
Where is the flower that will become your friend?
Tossed by the wind, you're almost out of sight
But you're free - change with me, Sweet Butterfly!
