On a warm, midsummers night A weary soul, beneath a tired sky Perchance, perhaps a tinge of irony I come across a beautiful blue butterfly Her smile, an embrace of a song Melodies of violins on a rainy afternoon Pure like a sparkling mountain brook Precious like diamond dewdrops under a silver moon Gentle touches, etched in memory forever Soft as whispers, sharp as knives And velvet caresses which lighten The pains of a thousand lives Sighing with simple sadness Were those limpid brown eyes Which bravely fights the world, in them I see, a fierce spark resides Aching with a yearning so deep To see those eyes sparkle, that smile linger But time flies, like a magical dream Quaint and elusive, ever slipping through fingers And the summer breeze dies out slowly While I tremble and tumble, swoon and sway After you, you beautiful blue butterfly Who took my heart away! And as times will come and times go by Can’t help but wonder, I On sleepless nights with breathless sighs Solemn solitary walks, with cicadas cries Did you ever care, ever realise? Or was I a fool to fantasize? Hoping for a blossom of love in those eyes You beautiful blue butterfly.

Beautiful Blue Butterfly
On a warm, midsummers night A weary soul, beneath a tired sky Perchance, perhaps a tinge of irony I come across a beautiful blue butterfly Her smile, an embrace of a song Melodies of violins on a rainy afternoon Pure like a sparkling mountain brook Precious like diamond dewdrops under a silver moon Gentle touches, etched in memory forever Soft as whispers, sharp as knives And velvet caresses which lighten The pains of a thousand lives Sighing with simple sadness Were those limpid brown eyes Which bravely fights the world, in them I see, a fierce spark resides Aching with a yearning so deep To see those eyes sparkle, that smile linger But time flies, like a magical dream Quaint and elusive, ever slipping through fingers And the summer breeze dies out slowly While I tremble and tumble, swoon and sway After you, you beautiful blue butterfly Who took my heart away! And as times will come and times go by Can’t help but wonder, I On sleepless nights with breathless sighs Solemn solitary walks, with cicadas cries Did you ever care, ever realise? Or was I a fool to fantasize? Hoping for a blossom of love in those eyes You beautiful blue butterfly.
