A Thousand Butterflies Lyrics
he lifts the roses of her secrets deftly
they leave a perfume in the air
he climbs the mountain of her hesitation
then he reaches for her there
and she feels a thousand butterflies
alight and fill the room
desire, a flame, a fire in the garden
all of her is in bloom
O the things his hands can do
she walks the meadow of his
lonesome dreaming
while the willows stand and wait
she makes a wreath of every
bending sorrow
he is watching at the gate
and he feels a thousand butterflies
alight and fill his mind
desire aflame, a fire in the garden
all of him feels alive
she does it with her eyes
love has a way of destroying
the deep disguise
you’re not the wind you’re the tree
and the way it sighs
we’ve been broken, broken open,
like a thousand butterflies
desire, a flame, a fire in the garden
there’s nowhere left to hide
desire, a flame, a fire in the garden
where are we going to hide?
we’ve been broken, broken open,
like a thousand butterflies
they leave a perfume in the air
he climbs the mountain of her hesitation
then he reaches for her there
alight and fill the room
desire, a flame, a fire in the garden
all of her is in bloom
O the things his hands can do
lonesome dreaming
while the willows stand and wait
she makes a wreath of every
bending sorrow
he is watching at the gate
alight and fill his mind
desire aflame, a fire in the garden
all of him feels alive
she does it with her eyes
the deep disguise
you’re not the wind you’re the tree
and the way it sighs
like a thousand butterflies
there’s nowhere left to hide
desire, a flame, a fire in the garden
where are we going to hide?
like a thousand butterflies
