fly

Mariah Carey - Butterfly


When you love someone so deeply 
They become your life 
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside 
Blindly I imagined I could 
Keep you under glass 
Now I understand to hold you 
I must open up my hands and watch you rise 

Spread you wings and prepare to fly 
For you have become a butterfly (Oooh) 
Fly abandonedly into the sun 
If you should return to me 
We truly were meant to be, so spread your wings and fly 
Butterfly 

I have learned that beauty 
Has to flourish in the light 
Wild horses run unbridled 
Or their spirit dies 
You have given me the courage 
To be all that I can 
And I truly feel your heart will 
Lead you back to me when you're 
Ready to land 

Spread your wings and prepare to fly 
For you have become a butterfly (Oooh) 
Fly abandonedly into the sun 
If you should return to me, we truly were meant to be 
So spread your wings and fly (spread your wings and fly) 
Butterfly (butterfly) 

I can't pretend these tears 
Aren't overflowing steadily 
I can't prevent this hurt from 
Almost overtaking me 
But I will stand and say goodbye (stand and say goodbye) 
For you'll never be mine 
Until you know the way it feels to fly 


Spread your wings and prepare to fly 
For you have become a butterfly 
Fly abandonedly into the sun 
If you should return to me 
We truly were meant to be (you and I) 
So spread your wings and fly (spread your wings and fly) 
Butterfly 
So flutter through the sky 
Butterfly 
Fly 
Spread your wings and fly 
Butterfly.
