Elusive Butterfly Lyrics - Aretha Franklin

You might wake up some mornin' 

To the sound of something 

Moving past your window in the wind 

And if you're quick enough to rise 

You'll catch a fleeting glimpse 

Of someone's fading shadow 

Out on the new horizon 

You may see the floating motion 

Of a distant pair of wings 

And if the sleep has left your ears 

You might hear footsteps 

Running through an open meadow

Don't be concerned, it will not harm you 

It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of 

Across my dreams with nets of wonder 

I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love 

You might have heard my footsteps 

Echo softly in the distance 

Through the canyons of your mind 

I might have even called your name 

As I ran searching 

After something to believe in 

You might have seen me runnin' 

Through the long abandoned ruins 

Of the dreams you left behind 

If you remember something there 

That glided past you followed close 

By heavy breathin' 

Photos 

Don't be concerned, it will not harm you 

It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of 

Across my dreams with nets of wonder 

I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love 

Across my dreams with nets of wonder 

I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
