What would you do
What would you say
If I told you my darling ;
I was going away?
And then you had answered,
In a calm and soft voice
My little butterfly
I'm here if you're lost.
Then raising a hand
Up to your lips
Slowly threw me
The softest kiss.
The breeze gently blew
As my wings took to flight.
Into the unknown ;
Wanting more in my life.
With wings fully feathered
No tethered restraint
I flew with the clouds
With dreams that await.
Then I arrived
In a city of hope
Grey skies for sunshine
Upon a mountainous slope.
There I could see
As I flew to the top;
Where I had been,
And now I can stop.
