BUTTERFLYLyrics: Mariah CareyMusic: Mariah Carey, Walter AfanasieffProduced and Arranged by Mariah Carey and Walter Afanasieff When you love someone so deeplyThey become your lifeIt's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears insideBlindly I imagined I couldKeep you under glassNow I understand to hold youI must open my handsAnd watch you riseSpread your wings and prepare to flyFor you have become a butterfly Fly abandonedly into the sunIf you should return to meWe truly were ment to beSo spread your wings and flyButterflyI have learned that beautyHas to flourish in the lightWild horses run unbridledOr their spirit diesYou have given me the courageTo be all that I canAnd I truly feel your heart willLead you back to me when you'reReady to landSpread your wings and prepare to flyFor you have become a butterfly Fly abandonedly into the sunIf you should return to me We truly were ment to beSo spread your wings and flyButterflyI can't pretend these tearsAren't over flowing steadilyI can't prevent this hurt fromAlmost overtaking meBut will stand and say goodbyeFor you'll never be mineUntil you know the wayIt feels to flySpread your wings and prepare to flyFor you have become a butterfly Fly abandonedly into the sun If you should return to meWe truly were ment to beSo spread your wings and flyMy ButterflySpread your wings and prepare to flyFor you have become a butterflyFly abandonedly into the sunIf you should return to meWe truly were ment to beSo spread your wings and flyButterflySo flutter through the skyButterflyFlySpread your wings and flyButterfly
