Dolly Parton – Elusive Butterfly Lyrics  Share

From Dolly Parton's album: The Great Pretender

You might wake up some morning
To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind
And if you^,re quick enough to rise
You^,ll catch the 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 something 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
[ Elusive Butterfly lyrics from

As I ran searching after something to believe in
You might have seen me runnin^,
Through the long abandonned ruins of the dreams you left behind
If you remember something there
That glided past you followed close by heavy breathing

Don^,t be concerned, it will not harm you
It^,s only me pursuing something 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
Across my dreams, with nets of wonder
I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love
