Little Butterfly

Oh Little butterfly you came into my world, changed it so fast

Curious and full of life.

Quietly watching everything around you.

Fluttering about, never wanting to leave my side.

Fed you, sheltered you, and watched you grow.

You would rest on my shoulder and listen to me teach you the ways of the world.

Oh Little butterfly you came into my world, changed it so fast.

Oh Little butterfly

Little butterfly

Because of you

Even in the darkness I noticed the beauty in the moon and flowers.

You gave me purpose when I had none.

Oh Little butterfly you came into my world, changed it so fast.

Oh Little butterfly

Little butterfly

I was tired, busy making our world more secure.

Building somethin' from nothin' can take a toll

God knows

You still fluttered about making me smile; you glimmered in the sun.

I tried to enjoy but that's always easier said than done.

when I looked down you were there always resting on my shoulder.

Maybe I was distracted, it seems so trivial now.

Oh Little butterfly you came into my world, changed it so fast.

Oh Little butterfly

Now you have grown!

And I've made our world more secure.

We have so many shiny things.

But the days have gone when you fluttered about.

When I look down at my shoulder, you're not there very often.

You have your own ideas about the world, it's my turn to listen.

But I know all is as it should be.

And you should see all the beautiful flowers.

No matter how far away from me they may be.

Oh little butterfly little butterfly your colors, oh how they sparkle

They are so bright just like you.!

If only I had more time!

Oh Little butterfly

Oh Little butterfly

Little butterfly

You have changed my world again so quickly.

As I watch you fly away my heart breaks

But I'm so proud

Oh little butterfly....
