You came with the sun my dear
Left me when winter was near
Fly away clear
But come back soon
You made me believe in more
Picked me back up off the floor
Felt I could soar
Forever more
Butterfly wings in springtime
This is when I'm in my prime
Ready to climb
High as a dream
Butterfly wings in springtime
Beautiful thoughts in my mind
A time to shine
A chance to dream
The short time you were with me
You showed me how to be free
Wonder and glee
Lightness and awe
On your fragile wings I flew
What a beautiful view
It was now true
You knew my name
Butterfly wings in springtime
This is when I'm in my prime
Ready to climb
High as a dream
Butterfly wings in springtime
Beautiful thoughts in my mind
A time to shine
A chance to dream
You knew my name
You knew my name
Your wings were fragile and rare
You knew my name
You knew my name
I was never the same
I went where your flight took me
Way up that I could now see
What was to be
Of my time here
You came with the sun my dear
Left me when winter was near
Fly away clear
But come back soon
Butterfly wings in springtime
This is when I'm in my prime
Ready to climb
High as a dream
Butterfly wings in springtime
Beautiful thoughts in my mind
A time to shine
A chance to dream
You knew my name
You knew my name
When I took aim
You knew my name
I lit the flame
Now I proclaim
Ooh
