I realize now that all my fears have gone away.
I've grown up strong.
But if I would have known
Way back then
How this would turn out
I would have held you closer.
But I'm wasting my time,
'cause I know I can't catch you twice.
You're like a butterfly that way:
Too smart; too beautiful to stay.
And I look by now at all our choices
And they all seem to add up to the same mistake
But if I would have known
Way back then
How this would turn out
I would have held you closer and happily.
But I'm wasting my time,
'cause I know I can't catch you twice.
You're like a butterfly that way:
Too smart; too beautiful to stay.
