Butterflies!
Hungry, angry
Hot and tired
I walk into your life
The haze of summer
makes a halo
around your face with light
And on a wall you’ve hung
Babe Rainbow
framed from the Sunday Times
Enigmatic as the Mona Lisa
I read between your lines
That’s when I find
that you possess
all that I need:
the secret of happiness
You stare
and I’m impressed
as you reveal
the secret of happiness
And maybe more
as an encore
Bright as sunshine
Bold as headlines
By chance or design
Fluttering
the latest thing
your pearls before the swine
Northern skies
and butterflies
It’s still light at ten
Moon is rising
Trees are sighing
poetry again
That’s when I find
that you possess
all that I want:
the secret of happiness
You share
I never guessed
all that I need:
the secret of happiness
And maybe more
as an encore
The secret of happiness
was always concealed from me
But now that it’s been expressed
your secret’s revealed to me
Butterflies!
That’s when I find
that you possess
all that I need:
the secret of happiness
You share
and I’m impressed
all that I need:
the secret of happiness
And maybe more
as an encore
