Blue Butterflies

Pretty flowers in her hair....... 
Blue butterflies.......... 
You are there 

Blue butterflies.......... 
Follow you......... 
They love you too 
The field..... 
golden through 

For amongst the pain......... 
Such beauty 
Cannot stain 
Blue butterflies.............. 
Pretty flowers in her hair 
No one knows you are there 

The golden field 
Where I saw you first 
Pretty flowers in your hair......... 
Slaked my thirst 
I want to yield 
I want you there 

Blue butterflies encircle you, 
in the golden field 
Pretty flowers in your hair 
I know you are there 
For, love is true 
For beauty comes to those, 
who seek and want it too 

Dancing in the golden field......... 
These blue butterflies.......... 
Follow you, 
beneath blue skies 
The love you weald......... 
The love so true 

Pretty flowers in your hair........... 
Blue butterflies dancing round........... 
No one knows you are there......... 
It is you I found 

Pretty flowers in your hair 
The things you can find, 
amongst the pain you feel in your mind........... 
I am already there 

Blue butterflies surround me.............. 
Golden fields as far as the eye can see 
The pretty flowers in your hair............. 
I am there 

Love and gentleness to find........... 
Blue butterflies around................. 
a girl... 
with flowers in her hair.................. 
coming from the depths of my mind 
I am already there 
what I already found 

Love comes to all.............. 
Who seek a blue butterfly.......... 
A girl with flowers in her hair............ 
A golden field............. 
Beneath a blue sky........... 
where you can be there 
Standing tall
