butterfly

this song has been playing continously in my head... though i heard it ages ago (when i was in my teens) but..it never occured to me that the lyrics were so beautiful. Sincere, touching and yet analytical all at the same time.

presenting to you...
Butterfly -- Mariah Carey

When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
Blindly I imaged I could
Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open my hands
And watch you rise
