Butterfly
by Mariah Carey

When you love someone so deeply
they become your life
it's so easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
blindly I imagined I could
keep you under glass
now I understand to hold you
I must open my hands
and watch you rise

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
for you have become a butterfly
fly abandonly into the sun
if you shoul return to me
we were truly meant to be
so spread your wings and fly
butterfly

I have learned that beauty
has to flourish in the light
wild horses run unbridled
or their spirit dies
you have given me the  courage
to be all that I can
and truly feel your heart will
lead you back to mewhen you're
ready to land

I can't pretend these tears
aren't overflowing steadily
I  can't prevent this hurt from
almost overtaking me
but I will stand and say goodbye
for you'll never be mine
until you know the way it feels to fly

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
for you have become a butterfly
fly abandonely into the sun
if you should return to me
we truly were meant to be
so spread your wings and fly
butterfly...

You probably wonder why I put this song on my page...

Well, it has a very big meaning for me and I goes along

with something I learned a long time ago.

I think everyone has probably some experience that is similar to this song.

So I just felt compelled to put this up.

Besides... it's a pretty song!
