Butterfly

I wish I was a butterfly,
Beautiful and free.
I wish I was a butterfly,
Floating through the breeze.

I wish I was a butterfly,
Colors bright as light.
I wish I was a butterfly,
Able to take flight.

I wish I was a butterfly,
Silent as the wind.
I wish I was a butterfly,
And a flower was my friend.

I wish I was a butterfly,
Fluttering with grace.
I wish I was a butterfly,
Soaring place to place.

I wish I was a butterfly,
Beautiful and free.
I wish I was a butterfly,
Floating through the breeze.
