In my stomach were butterflies
But I had no idea why,
I loved you dearly, yet still I see
Myself franticly clipping their wings.
The world is in a state of gray
But you come in and brightly say
“Only you, my love, will I adore.”
I never could have wanted more.
For you I live, for you I breathe
My heart wants these creatures freed
Escaped from their cage, released today
My butterfly blues finally fade away
