Butterfly Songtext

von Corinne Bailey Rae

In my mother's house
There's a photograph
Of a day gone past
Always makes me laugh
There's a little girl
Wary of the world
She got much to learn
Get her fingers burned
An infinty
Between you and me
Coz we're family
Said that i'd be fine
Give me all your time
And I left your side
Like a butterfly

Show me with your love
Colour of everyday
You make the milk of sun
Shine on me
Lift me up so high
Watch me fly away
Would you live your life
Like a butterfly

In my mother's house
There was happiness
I wrapped my myself in it
Was my chrysalis
As my life unfolds
See a pattern through
Of you protecting me
And I protecting you
What was I to say
Make your own mistakes
And when you woke
Made sure that you remained the same
Now I realise
What was on your mind
When I left your side
Like a butter fly

Show me with your love
Colour of everyday
You make the milk of sun
Shine on me
Lift me up so high
Watch me fly away
Give me life
Like a butterfly

Show me with your love
Colour of everyday
You make the milk of sun
Shine on me
Lift me up so high
Watch me fly away
Give me life
Like a butterfly
