Heart - Dog and Butterfly Lyrics

There I was with the old man
Stranded
again so off I'd ran
A young world crashing around me
No possibilities of
getting what I need
He looked at me and smiled
Said No, no, no, no, no
child

See the dog and butterfly
Up in the air he like to fly.
Dog
and butterfly
Below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm soft
ground, laughing
She don't know why, she don't know why
Dog and
butterfly

Well I stumbled upon your secret place
Safe in the trees
you had tears on your face
Wrestling with your desires frozen
strangers
Stealing your fires, the message hit my mind
Only words that I
could find

See the dog and butterfly
Up in the air he like to
fly
Dog and butterfly below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm
soft ground
Laughing to the sky, up to the sky
Dog and
butterfly

We're getting older the world's getting colder
For the life
of me I don't know the reason why
Maybe it's livin' making us give
in
Hearts rolling in taken back on the tide
We're balanced together ocean
upon the sky

Another night in this strange town
Moonlight holding me
light as down
Voice of confusion inside of me
No begging to go back where
I'm free
Feels like I'm through
Then the old man's words are
true

See the dog and butterfly
Up in the air he like to fly
Dog
and butterfly, below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm soft
ground
With a little tear in her eye
She had to try, she had to
try
Dog and butterfly
