You Are My Star, In the Far Off Sky

I captured a million butterflies
My heart flutters for you
A million and one you see
Beauty made unique for two

My heart is buried in clouds
Dark with stormy winds
Hidden inside of sorrows
Thus is I who makes the rain

And now the flowers bloom in spring
For sadness feeds the earth
And if I could make you smile even once
Then a million butterflies would dance

I planted those million flowers
My heart has opened to you
A million and one in blossom
For a beauty you are to me
