Beautiful butterfly

A beautiful butterfly
Once landed on my hand
In her search for freedom

I hear the whisper in the midst of a storm
A cry of pain when I wake in the morn'
While listening to the voice in my dream
I recognize the tears in a silver stream

A beautiful butterfly
Was pulled fom the sky
And caged with no freedom at all

I searched in gardens all over the land
Guided by dreams where I held her softly in my hand
But blinded by tears on my narrow path
I got lost and did loose my sight

A beautiful butterfly
Whispered gently in my ear
In search of my freedom I'll always be near

The butterfly broke free, lifted by the wind
Resting on a flowerbed to heal her broken wing
My dreams guide me with an open hand
Patiently waiting for her to land

A beautiful butterfly
Landed on my hand
In her search for freedom

I hear the whisper in the midst of a storm
A cry of pain when I wake in the morn'
While listening to the voice in my dream
I recognize her tears in a silver stream

The beautiful butterfly
Can only be loved
When she knows
That she always can be free
Only then
She can be who she is
Truly an angel
