Dance, Butterfly, dance
Dance your wayward ballet.
The clouds cover the sky
Choke off your light.
I cannot see you, Butterfly
But you keep dancing.
You keep dancing.
Dance, Butterfly, dance
Dance your fragile ballet
So delicate
So frail
Disturbed by the slightest breeze.
So easily crushed underfoot
But you keep dancing, Butterfly.
You keep dancing.
Dance, Butterfly, dance
Dance your peaceful ballet.
The calm before the storm
Thunder rumbles
But the air is still.
The air is deathly still.
But you keep dancing, Butterfly.
You keep dancing.
Dance, Butterfly, dance
Dance your unrelenting ballet.
The thunder rolls
And the drops fall
Pitter-patter, splitter-splatter
And you keep dancing, Butterfly.
You keep dancing.
Dance, Butterfly, dance
Dance your spirited ballet
The clouds part
And the sun shines again
A ray of hope descends
Upon opening flower petals
And you keep dancing, Butterfly.
You keep dancing.
Dance, Butterfly, dance
Dance your colorful ballet.
Flit amongst the flowers
The beautiful flowers
The delicate, ornate flowers.
Play amongst the oranges and reds
The blues and violets
The shades of green.
And you keep dancing, Butterfly.
Just you keep on dancing.
