I've been trying to say what I mean
I keep getting stuck somewhere between
All the words I've been trying to say
Are pent up and broken by the end of the day
I believe what you're trying to say
I could let your words take me away
But I'm skeptical been here before
I wound up broken, lying on the floor
chorus
They cut you from the fabric
Too elegant for me
And I could try to capture you
But a butterfly is meant to be free
A butterfly is meant to be free
You could say that you'll always be there
You could show me how much you care
But as always time's wearing away
The best of your love and your brightest of days
Isn't this good enough
chorus
They cut you from the fabric
Too elegant for me
And I could try to capture you
But a butterfly is meant to be free
A butterfly is meant to be free
Oh where did my sadness go?
You must have washed it away
So I'll watch you everyday
From a distance to keep you safe
