Elusive Butterfly Lyrics - Singles - Bob Lind

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' 

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
