Caterpillar To Butterfly

Everynight you tucked me in bed

you bent down and kissed my head

you wished me goodnight, sweet dreams

you turned off the lights

you kept me safe all through the nights


I see your face

you're telling your friends

about the first time you held me in your hands

I see as your lips smile and in your eyes the tears lie

remembering the sweet memories your heart cries

you notice how easily time passes by

and how soon your catterpillar is turning into a butterfly


It is so amazing to find someone always guiding you

through the times when life gets tiring

and all we think of is retiring

but you would give it a whirl

and tell me to never be a faint-hearted girl

you kept me inspiring


You had to give it all

sacrifice all that you've always want

to give me all that I see in those ADs and magazines

those luxuries that attract me


And then the day will come

when the threads will have to be broken

when I'll have to leave this cocoon

and when I'll leave my little room

id remember how you've stood by

as i turned from a caterpillar to your butterfly


I'd look back and see this place

where we spent nights talking about

the frock's shining lace

or this life's doubts

I'd look back to see this little house

where I grew up and figured out

that family always remains

in memories and in your heart


And even after i turn into a butterfly

stay by me and help me try

to keep the innocence of your catterpillar

though i would have wings to fly

keep me to the ground and still touch the sky...
