Verse 1
In the quiet after everything broke
When the world still turned but my heart felt slow
A purple butterfly danced through the air
Like heaven was whispering, she’s still here
Fragile wings in a violet glow
Too beautiful for the pain we know
She brushed my tears and then she flew
Left love behind like she meant to do
Verse 2
By my side, a little sparrow stayed
Trembling chest but strong in his faith
Quiet courage, eyes worn tired
But he never once left my side
He gathered hope in a broken nest
Held my hands when I couldn’t rest
Even when his own heart bled
He stayed, he stayed
Pre-Chorus
And I didn’t know who I’d be
After the world took part of me
But something still inside would sing
Even shattered, I still had wings
Chorus
I’m the lark in the open sky
Learning how to lift and cry
Singing through the ache and fear
Because love is louder than despair
A sparrow guards what still remains
A butterfly breaks every chain
Three hearts written in God’s own art
Never apart, never apart
Verse 3
The lark sings not because she’s whole
But because love still fills her soul
Every note is a prayer I send
To my baby in the arms of heaven
I sing when the pain tries to pull me under
I sing when my heart splits like thunder
Because God hears every broken sound
And He never lets them hit the ground
Bridge
The sparrow flies low, steady and sure
The lark rises high, vulnerable, pure
And the butterfly dances where heaven meets air
A promise of life beyond despair
She reminds me death is not the end
Just love with a different bend
And every time the wind turns mild
I feel you close, my child
Chorus (soft, lifted)
I’m the lark, still learning to trust
To rise through ash, sorrow, and dust
A sparrow keeps watch through the night
A butterfly bathes the sky in light
God drew us in feather and flame
Painted grief and grace the same
Three souls held in His open hand
Closer than we understand
Outro
So when purple wings brush my face
I know love still fills this space
A sparrow waits, a lark still sings
And heaven holds the butterfly’s wings
