I am a butterfly,
hovering for a moment; for a lifetime
I stretch my wings
feeling love and life for the first time

The dusk will claim another day
In the meadow the fireflies play
Upon the breeze the night music sails
The crickets and the nightingales
The melodies of the moonlight
Sooths the soul into the night
The enchanting glow of sequined skies
The the dreams that lay behind closed eyes
At dawn the dreams will fade away
And in there place a brand new day
