Lyrics
I was running through our first date, rehearsed it in my mind
Blue skies and butterflies, a bottle of your favorite wine
We walked along the riverbank, I saw a sparkle in your eyes
Didn't need the heavens-love was right there that night
Blue skies-how you kept me strong
Blue skies-when the nights were long
Doesn't matter if the storm rolls in or the night turns dark
When I'm lookin' in your eyes-I hold blue skies in my heart
We worked to build a home together, painted walls and beams
Raised a family on this land, built our hopes and dreams
Through long nights and the hard times, one thing pulled me through
The world could turn to dust, but I still saw blue skies in you
Butterflies-when the nights were long
Butterflies-you kept me strong
Even when the bills piled up and the daylight slipped away
I could see forever, I feel butterflies each day
Like butterflies around us, love's been gentle, strong, and true
They dance across the seasons, but always find their way to you
Through the changes and the years, their colors never fade
They remind me of our love, in every choice we've made
We've weathered storms together, thunder in the night
We've stumbled in the darkness but love became our light
Through tears and midnight prayers, one thing I always knew
The clouds would break wide open, every blue sky led to you
It seems like it were yesterday, when I first held your hand
And I'd choose that moment over and over again
Through the highs and lows, one thing that rings true
I've seen a lot of skies, but darlin'-all blue skies are you
Golden butterflies every day take flight, bring the blue out in your eyes
A love that's never faded, like the endless summer skies
Every time you smile at me, I feel that spark anew
Blue skies and butterflies still lead me back to you
I get butterflies-every time you're near
Your blue skies-chase away my fears
Doesn't matter if the storm rolls in or the night turns dark
When I'm lookin' in your eyes-I get butterflies and I hold blue skies in my heart
