about

Mary is Jourdan's butterfly and he wanted her to know that he believed in her. This song is meant to be an inspiration for everyone to follow their heart and know that everything will work out in the end.

lyrics

With sacrifices over
Now I can hold in my arms beloved
Making sense out of circumstance
To decode the message of a fate I can believe in

Oh it’s been a long time coming
Home is where the love is

I get on by
I sail on dreams
Come float along with me
Cause I guess that the ground’s
Been holding you down
And I want you to fly
Just be my butterfly

I smell love on you
Do you smell love on me
I think this was meant to be
Soon to see

The seeds that we plant
Will grow and then overflow
A blossoming garden that we can call our own
In the sunshine we'll thrive it will make us feel alive

But even on the dark stormy days
Our brightest colors won’t fade

Cause I get on by
I sail on dreams
Come float along with me
Cause I guess that the ground’s
Been holding you down
And I want you to fly
Just be my butterfly

When you find you can be no other
We all start out as caterpillar
Metamorphosis through chrysalis
All you gotta do
Is to follow your bliss
Ain’t nothing that you’re gonna miss

Cause I get on by
I sail on dreams
Come float along with me
Cause I guess that the ground’s
Been holding you down
And I want you to fly
Just be my butterfly

Spread your wings and fly
Fluttering through the sky
Let the sun and moon lead
Oh a compass you don’t need

Navigating the stars
There's no distance too far
For the love in these hearts
That's all you ever need

Butterfly
You’re a butterfly
Butterfly to me
