Elusive Butterfly
Bob Lind
(Words and Music by Bob Lind)
You might wake up some mornin’
To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind
And if you’re quick enough to rise
You’ll catch a fleeting glimpse of someone’s fading shadow
Out on the new horizon
You may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wings
And if the sleep has left your ears
You might hear footsteps running through an open meadow
Don’t be concerned, it will not harm you
It’s only me pursuing somethin’ I’m not sure of
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
You might have heard my footsteps
Echo softly in the distance
through the canyons of your mind
I might have even called your name
As I ran searching after
something to believe in
You might have seen me runnin’
Through the long-abandoned
ruins of the dreams you left behind
If you remember something there
That glided past you followed
close by heavy breathin’
Don’t be concerned, it will not harm you
It’s only me pursuing somethin’ I’m not sure of
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
—- instrumental interlude —-
Across my dreams with nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
