Butterflies in the Rain

Verse 1

I kept your letters in a jar,

Every word still glows like a fading star.

I see your face in the glass when it rains,

Love and heartbreak—two sides of the same.

I tried to run but the wind pulled me back,

Your ghost is stitched in my heart like a track.

Every time I try to fly, I fall,

But I’d still rather crawl than lose it all.

Chorus

I’ve got butterflies in the rain,

Drowning slow, but they still remain.

Tried to break free, but my heart said no,

I love you too much to ever let go.

Sadness paints my wings tonight,

Love cuts deep, but it feels so right.

I’m breaking away, but it’s painfully slow—

I love you too much till I go.

Verse 2

You said forever, I believed the sound,

Now I’m just talking to the empty ground.

Your voice still lingers in my veins,

Sweet and cruel, like summer flames.

I keep dreaming that I’ll learn to fly,

But every dream ends with goodbye.

You’re the reason, you’re the ache,

My heart’s a cage I can’t escape.

Chorus

I’ve got butterflies in the rain,

Drowning slow, but they still remain.

Tried to break free, but my heart said no,

I love you too much to ever let go.

Sadness paints my wings tonight,

Love cuts deep, but it feels so right.

I’m breaking away, but it’s painfully slow—

I love you too much till I go.

Bridge

Maybe one day I’ll fade into blue,

A butterfly who once loved you.

The rain will wash me from your sky,

But part of me will never say goodbye.

Final Chorus

I’ve got butterflies in the rain,

Torn and trembling, whisper your name.

I tried to leave, but my heart said no,

I love you too much to ever let go.

If loving you is how I die slow,

Then I’ll love you too much till I go.

Outro

Butterflies in the rain…

Still chasing your name…

Till I go.
