Yoko Kanno: "Butterfly" Lyrics

You're a love song

Only half-way sung

You're the knot that comes undone

Dressed as darkest night

The flight of a stringless kite



The very vision

The mirage man

You're air in the palm of my hand

You're like catching

The day's sunset

O rain that's never wet



You're a butterfly in the mind

You're a butterfly before my eyes

You're a butterfly, a trick of time



Who leaves before he arrives



You're a butterfly in the mind

You're a butterfly before my eyes

You're a butterfly, who says he's mine



Who leaves before he arrives
