Heather Nova - Butterflies And Moths Lyrics

Heather Nova Lyrics

"Butterflies And Moths"

Those little wings
The light outside your room
Like paper plates
All flying at the moon
So delicate
They flicker and they fade
How'd we forget
The promises we made?

Everything I wanted
Everything I lost
Hanging in the balance
Butterflies and moths

We're drawn towards
The light that makes us burn
The brightest flame
Oh will we ever learn?

Everything I wanted
Everything I lost
Hanging in the balance
Butterflies and moths

You tore the wings you gave me
You ripped them clean away
I guess we never really know
Another's pain

We see the good
Ignore the danger signs
Ignore the danger signs
I thought you had
Aligned your stars with mine

Everything I wanted
Everything I lost
Hanging in the balance
Butterflies and moths
Everything I wanted
Everything I lost
Everything everything
Hanging in the balance
Butterflies and moths
Butterflies and butterflies
Butterflies and months
And butterflies and butterflies
And moths
