[Verse]
I saw him today walking in the rain
Footsteps like whispers
Soft but plain
A shadow danced where no one stood
The air felt heavy
But it felt good
[Prechorus]
In a butterfly
In the sway of a tree
My son’s everywhere
But just out of reach
[Chorus]
Butterfly in the rain
Wings of light
Wings of pain
He’s saying hi
He’s saying stay
A bird that soars
A soul set free
He’s in the mirror
With my eyes
Smiling back at me
[Verse 2]
A robin perched on the edge of the sky
Sang his name
I didn’t ask why
The puddles reflected his face
in my face
A flicker of him
A fleeting embrace
[Prechorus]
In the ripples
In the clouds above
He’s the echo
The shadow of love
[Chorus]
Butterfly in the rain
Wings of light
Wings of pain
He’s saying hi
He’s saying stay
A bird that soars
A soul set free
He’s in the mirror
With my eyes
Smiling back at me
