Chorus:
It’s easy to
lose the one you love
if you are trying to chain their heart to yours.1
That beauty is
something you may now
visualize just before your own mind’s eye.
1st verse:
What drew us to this
dance was the light; it’s the
Night of Butterflies but that
shine never quite met your eyes.
Whispering,
you would tell what you see, but
I never got what you were
trying to explain to me.
(Chorus)
2nd verse:
Endless was
this shared night of ours; it
felt like the dawn
would never have caught us up.
But slowly you
started drifting away.
I guess I thought you would
never again roam free...
(Chorus)
Bridge:
You spread your wings and flied
away with such grace and
I don’t know where you’ll now head.
Let the winds carry
that song of yours into my
ears so that I can hear.
(Chorus × 2)
1. “If you want to completely, totally own the other person”, in the original lyrics. I guess you could also go for “If you just want to own them once and for all.”
