(i)
when you love someone so deeply
they become your life
it’s easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
blindly I imaged I could
keep you under glass
now I understand to hold you
i must open up my hands
and watch you rise
spread your wings and prepare to fly
for you have become a butterfly
fly abandonedly into the sun
if you should return to me
we truly were meant to be
so spread your wings and fly
butterfly..
(ii)
i'm not looking for someone to talk to
i've got my friend, i'm more than okay
i've got more than a girl could wish for
i live my dreams but it's not all they say
still I believe, i'm missing something real
i need someone who really sees me...
don't wanna wake up alone anymore
still believing you'll walk through my door
all I need is to know it's for sure
then I'll give... all the love in the world
(iii)
if i never knew you
if i never felt this love
i would have no inkling of
how precious life can be
and if I never held you
i would never have a clue
how, at last, i'd find in you
the missing part of me..
(iv)
i wanna be with you
if only for a night
to be the one whose in your arms
who holds you tight...
i wanna be with you
there's nothing more to say
there's nothing else i want more than to feel this way
i wanna be with you...
(v)
i hear a lonesome dove off in the distance
his cry echoes out through the hills
he's sad that his lover flew off with another
and i know the sorrow he feels
lonesome dove, we're not that different
you sing a sad song, but you're not alone
you've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
i know how you feel, lonesome dove..
