You're a love song
  Only half-way sung
  You're the knot that comes undone
  You're the daylight
  Dressed as darkest night
  The flight of a stringless kite
 
  The very vision
  The mirage man
  You're air in the palms of my hand
  You're like catching
  The day's sunset
  O rain that's never wet
 
  You're a butterfly in the mind
  You're a butterfly before my eyes
  You're a butterfly, a trick of time
 
  Who leaves before he arrives
 
  You're a butterfly in the mind
  You're a butterfly before my eyes
  You're a butterfly who says he's mine
 
  Who leaves before he arrives
