The wing of a butterfly brushed my cheek
It stopped me from starting to cross the street
So you bumped right into me
Actualization of a theory, maybe, baby
Then you said, "Sorry", I said the same
Spilled my coffee, oh, what a shame
Said you'd buy one in exchange
For my number and my name
One date turned to two, then four, then ten
"Hello" turned to "Never leave my mind again"
Now you sleep by my side and kiss my neck
And I thank the world for the butterfly effect
Sometimes I sit in our bed and think
If that butterfly never made me spill that drink
Would you find your way to me?
Was it fate or the work of a theory? Clearly
You and I were meant to be
So the universe help bring you to me
And I'm thankful every night
For that pretty butterfly
The day I met you, felt myself mend
"Hello" turned to "Never leave my mind again"
Now you sleep by my side and kiss my neck
And I thank the world for the butterfly effect
For the butterfly effect
