Elusive Butterfly

Lyrics

You might wake up some mornin'
 To the sound of something
 Moving past your window in the wind (wind)
 And if you're quick enough to rise
 You'll catch the fleeting glimpse
 Of someone's fading shadow (shadow), yes, you will now
 Out on the dew horizon
 You may see a floating motion
 Of a distant pair of wings (no way now)
 And if the sleep has left your ears
 You might hear footsteps
 Runnin' through an open meadow (meadow)
 But you will now (but you will now)
 Don't be concerned, 'cause I won't harm you
 It's only me pursuing somethin' that I'm not sure of
 Across my dreams (across my dreams) with nets of wonder (nets of wonder)
 I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
 Yes I do now
 You might have seen me running (running)
 Through the long abandoned ruins of the dreams you left behind
 If you remember something there that glided past you
 Followed by a heavy breathin' (hey, hey, heavy breathin')
 Why don't you do it? (Don't you do it)
 Don't be concerned, 'cause I won't harm you
 It's only me pursuing somethin' that I'm not sure of
 Across my dreams (across my dreams) with my nets of wonder (nets of wonder)
 I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
 Yes I do now (yes I do now)
 I'm right behind ya (I'm right behind ya)
 The elusive butterfly of love
 I'm right behind ya
