Butterfly

i'm not trying to change the woman that you are because you can't keep a butterfly bottled up in a jar i can let go of you hand but not your heart how can something so simple always be this hard uncover all the secrets you've buried beneath the sand you build love out of the truth so trust me if you can and i won't try giving you what you won't take from my hand i never stop loving you, i just stopped trying and if you can't be with yourself with me why should i have to live your lies it's time for the cocoon to open and turn into a butterfly you can see my tears fall down as i watch you fly i'm not trying to hurt you i've always been a gentle man someone you could count on to trust and understand so i try giving you what you won't take from my hand i'd give you anything your eyes could see spend one night loving me you wouldn't take it from my hands i'd have been right there for you i had so much to share with you you wouldn't take it from my hands when love is real love is grand please take it from my hand take it from my hands
