Butterfly Girl

© 2010 Mark Cote

see her sparkle
sunlight rising in her eyes
sidewalk angels
smile when she walks by

purple persuasion
to flood my weary mind

love just can't hold on to a butterfly girl

she keeps walking
no matter what they say
those that love you
have no way to convey

hands of love reach out
you just up and fly away

love just can't hold on to a butterfly girl

(chorus) pretty baby
                why do you keep it all inside
                a budding flower
                why do you run away and hide
                or are you just a dream
                a solitary heart
                love just can't hold on to a butterfly girl
(instrumental)
(chorus)

smallest flowers
are just an empty shell
the sweetest blossom
has the deepest honey well

if you don't reach down
you will never know

love just can't hold on to a butterfly girl
love just can't hold on to a butterfly girl

butterfly
butterfly
butterfly girl
butterfly
butterfly
butterfly girl
