feeling flighty

i don't know why, but it seems i'm in a "butterfly" mood these past days. i have my "starry," "angel-y" and "heart-y" days. but right now, i'm thinking butterflies.

found this nice illusion today. and i guess it's quite apt. hmmm. yes. very appropriate to my mood today.

it's all about illusions, ambiguity and double meanings.

i wish i could fly..

BUTTERFLY
Mariah Carey


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 my hands

And watch you rise


[Chorus:]

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

I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled

Or their spirit dies
You have given me the courage

To be all that I can
And truly feel your heart will

Lead you back to me when you're
Ready to land

[Chorus]


I can't pretend these tears

Aren't overflowing steadily

I can't prevent this hurt from
Almost overtaking me

But I will stand and say goodbye

For you'll never be mine
Until you know the way it feels to fly


[Chorus]


So flutter through the sky

Butterfly
Spread your wings and fly

Butterfly
