Butterflies
Alana Lee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

From the early days
I saw your face boy
You told me a lie
I knew you were shy
This is what we do
You don't have to be ashamed
Cause we're holding hands walking in the hallways
You give me butterflies deep inside
You give me butterflies
I don't know where to run, run, run, run from you

So I gotta say, you give me butterflies deep inside
You give me butterflies
I don't know what to do, do, do without you
Boy, you give me butterflies
I get lost sometimes when you act like a fool
You ignore my words and I can't get over you
This is what we do everyday
I'm in my room on the phone with you
All night long

You give me butterflies deep inside
You give me butterflies
I don't know where to run, run, run, run from you

So I gotta say, you give me butterflies deep inside
You give me butterflies
I don't know what to do, do, do without you
Boy, you give me butterflies

You give me butterflies deep inside
You give me butterflies
I don't know where to run, run, run, run from you

So I gotta say, you give me butterflies deep inside
You give me butterflies




I don't know what to do, do, do without you
Boy, you give me butterflies

This must be my favourite song from ARK... People were wayy to hard and serious on the songs they produced. This isn't bad.
