Butterflies
T2 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh my love, you hold my hand,
Make me feel the beauty of the world.
the shining stars in your eyes,
tell me what love is really like.
like a bird flies in the sky,
nothing's gonna make it cry.
like a fish swims in the sea,
living every day in happy dream.
I really wanna be a butterfly
fly with you all my life
every day and night, every word you say
i try to cherish it all my life
i really wanna be a butterfly
fly with in you in your life




when you have to go we have to say good bye
but i'll keep on dreaming of your smile.
