The Butterfly Lyrics

  
  

In a far of land there lived a beautiful butterfly
In a kingdom full of blossom covered trees
And winding through this paradise, a river danced along
And played with the constant summer breeze

The butterfly found a tiny branch at the riverside
And watched the water rushing who-knows-where
Carefully he sheltered from the power of the breeze
For surely it could toss him through the air

�I�m a butterfly,� he said, �trivial and small
And in the greater scheme of things I don�t mean much at all
So I�ll flap my wings to stretch myself and just enjoy the view
I�m a butterfly, what more can I do?�

One afternoon, the butterfly asked the river
�Madam, what makes you hurry so?
What splendid destination are you rippling toward?
Where, oh, where do you go?�

The river said, �I�m headed for the ocean
And summer breeze inspires me to race
My friend, you�d love the ocean, it�s remarkable to see
Won�t you join our friendly chase?�

�I�m a butterfly,� he said, �trivial and small
And in the greater scheme of things I don�t mean much at all
So I�ll flap my wings to stretch myself and just enjoy the view
I�m a butterfly, what more can I do?�

So the butterfly, he dreamed of the ocean
He longed to flutter high above the seas
But there are dangers in the sky for a tiny butterfly
So from his branch he asked a question of the breeze

�What makes you chase the river towards the ocean?�
And the breeze told him a most amazing thing
�I�m simply made up of the currents in the air
That start from the movement of your wing, your tiny wing

�You�re a butterfly my friend, powerful and strong
And I�m grateful for the way you�ve always hurried me along
When you flap your wings to stretch yourself, it might seem small to you
But you change the world with everything you do�

So he stretched his wings and took off from the safety of his tree
And the butterfly finally saw the sea
