The Butterfly Song

Casey McQuillen

I like to think of myself as a butterfly
And not a moth
But you're the flame
And butterflies don’t feel the same
As I do so
I ran to you
Like a moth to a flame
But to you it's just a game
‘Cause you don't feel the same as I do

My knees buckle when you're around
And I can't keep up so I'm falling down
To the moon and the stars to be where you are with
The crazy way I'm wanting
Oh you know I'm wanting
You, it’s true

I like to think of the way it could be
If you loved me
It’d be lovely
Don’t you think?
But then I blink
And you are gone
Oh it is so wrong
How I don’t belong
In your arms

My knees buckle when you're around
And I can't keep up so I'm falling down
To the moon and the stars to be where you are with
The crazy way I'm wanting
Oh you know I'm wanting
You

I dream in raindrops, guitars, coffee, roses and you
And you dream of driving away from this place
Oh boy I wish you knew
That I do, too

Do you think of the way my heart beats
When you speak?
I get so weak

My knees buckle when you're around
And I can't keep up so I'm falling down
To the moon and the stars to be where you are with
The crazy way I'm wanting
Oh you know I'm wanting
You, it’s true
