[Female vocal]
[intro] [whisper soft]
i took a flight on a whim on my way
to a brand new destination
i took a chance
in the palm of my hands
no plans, no hesitation
and as i said goodbye
for the last time
hoping this aint the last time
that i see you
ill be home soon
[Chorus]
Cuz no matter where i go
theres never gonna be another place like home
and no matter where the wind blows
im always gonna keep a lil piece of home
Cuz I know, how far
how high I go, ill be alright
cuz you taught me how to fly
You’re my butterfly
[Verse]
I can’t thank you enough
Cuz you raised me up
All on your own
You never gave up
built us a home, and gave us a life
When I was alone, you were by my side
You’re always there when I needed you
When I was scared I believed in you
Taught me how to love
Taught me right from wrong
Kept me safe from harm
Kept me nice and warm
You don’t have to worry
Cuz u made me strong
I’ll always come back to you
Cuz you’re my mom
[Chorus]
Cuz no matter where i go
theres never gonna be another place like home
and no matter where the wind blows
im always gonna keep a lil piece of home
Cuz I know, how far
how high I go, ill be alright
cuz you taught me how to fly
You’re my butterfly
[male voice]
[verse]
You taught me how to be kind
taught me how to be brave
I know I make you lose your mind
With all the things I say
But when I think of what makes me
Who I am today
I’ll say it’s cuz of you
Mama you showed me the way
And that’s why I love you
The sacrifice you made
The things I can’t repay
You’re my inspiration
You always kept me safe
And when I’m all grown I’ll never be alone
Cuz as long as I have you I’ll always have a home
[Chorus] [male & female duet]
Cuz no matter where i go
theres never gonna be another place like home
and no matter where the wind blows
im always gonna keep a lil piece of home
Cuz I know, how far
how high I go, ill be alright
cuz you taught me how to fly
You’re my butterfly
