Butterflies
Adon Whittemore Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't you ever underestimate my love
Oh 'cause if you do I'll have to prove you wrong

And if you ever wonder why
I always sing you lullabies
It's because you give me those butterflies I love

Would you mind another mind beside your own
Oh I'm so inclined to find you if you go

But if you think our stars align
We'll celebrate our wedding night
With a toast to all of those butterflies we love

Oh the thought of you has brought me to a tear
And I never knew your love would suit my fears

But if you ever wonder why




I always sing you lullabies
Its because you give those butterflies I love
