YELLOW BUTTERFLY


YELLOW BUTTERFLY

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

APRIL 2020


UNDER A SMOKY BLUE SKY

THE SUN SHINES LAZY GOLD

ITS GOT SOME KIND OF HOLD

ON ME TODAY

I CAN'T MOVE MY FEET FROM HERE

I CAN'T GET AWAY


I WATCHED A KITE

BORN ON THE WIND

SOARING THROUGH THE SKY

AND BACK TO EARTH AGAIN

DO I NEED A NET

TO CATCH THIS DAY

PUT IT AWAY UNTIL IT RAINS


YELLOW BUTTERFLY

I CAN SEE YOU KISSING FLOWERS

LOST TRACK OF TIME

HAS IT BEEN MINUTES OR HOURS

CAUGHT IN THE SWEETNESS

THE SLOWNESS OF THE DAY

WAITING FOR YOU

ITS ENOUGH TO GET ME THROUGH

UNTIL YOU'RE AT MY SIDE

UNTIL OUR WORLDS COLLIDE


I KISS YOU HELLO

I PICK YOU A FLOWER

YOU PUT IT IN YOUR HAIR

WE WALK DOWN TO THE RIVER

TO WATCH THE WORLD FROM THERE

CATCH THE SUNSET

LOSING DAYLIGHT

THESE COLORS ARE RUNNING FAST

OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE

I SEE THEM GOING PAST

JUST AS SOFT MOONLIGHT

FINDS YOUR HAIR

ITS SO SWEET TO LOOK DOWN

AND SEE YOU THERE

WHEN YOU'RE NEAR ITS ALL SO CLEAR

NO LOVES TOO LATE

YOU CAN'T RUSH A GOOD THING

NO YOU'LL HAVE TO WAIT


THAT LOOK ON YOUR FACE

THAT I NEVER SAW

INSIDE THE CONCLUSION

THAT I DRAW

I MUST HAVE LOOKED

QUITE SOMETHING MYSELF

YELLOW BUTTERFLY

I CAN SEE YOU KISSING FLOWERS

LOST TRACK OF TIME

HAS IT BEEN MINUTES

OR HOURS
