verse 1
G
The birds and the bees singing in trees
D
Making me feel like I’m a butterfly, flying so very high
Am D
Holding my breath as I’m looking down at the world
G
And the ocean blue waves at you
D
Hoping that you’re holding a lover’s hand, writing your names in sand
Am D
Building a castle where you can live with your girl
Am
Because I can see
D
That I may be
G E Am
Falling so swiftly for you
Am D G
So if I’m a butterfly, will you be a butterfly too?
verse 2
G
And I can’t believe, among the trees
D
There’s a place that’s invisible, maybe even liveable
Am D
Would it be forgivable if I said we should go?
G
This candyfloss rain tastes like champagne
D
And I’ve heard the sunsets are beautiful, oh so very colourful
Am D
And when the moon is full, there is a fireworks show
Am
And now I can see
D
That I may be
G E Am
Falling so swiftly for you
Am D G
So if I’m a butterfly, will you be a butterfly too?
Outro
Am
And suddenly it’s very clear
D G
I’m madly deeply so in love with you.
