Butterfly |
Lyrics1) Caterpillar, going through a change nowCaterpillar going through a change you cannot see Perplexingly you weave your womb Encase you in your white cocoon Butterfly, Butterfly soon will be waking from your sleep to the great change that has taken place Flying oe?r the water, see your reflection. Chorus: Caterpillar, goodbye now; spread those wings you can fly now Caterpillar no more now; Butterfly is your name now Goodbye, no more trudging overnight That change has happened to your life Goodbye, Goodbye Goodbye 2) Wings of red and gold will take you far away Far away to places that you?ve never seen before Emerging from your white cocoon Outshine the flowers as they bloom Butterfly, Butterfly soon will be waking from your sleep to the great change that has taken place Flying oe?r the water, oe?r your sons and daughters Nature?s beauty floats Repeat Chorus 2x |
