There is a kind light in my eyes
An ocean of life unending,
Our lives have just begun
Caterpillar tears fall on solid ground
Love smiles and eternal kisses
Sharp sparks touch the inside, the core
We are butterflies breathing human love
Each pulse on our flesh is a song
The minutes travelling through space are hope –
A burning candle never losing its light
I looked through open spaces
And doorways
I looked to find you
Looked to find another butterfly
To fly with higher,
Now only before the sun sets
Do I see this light
Shining ever bright…
Pretty wings fly with me!
