DOG AND BUTTERFLY
(Ann Wilson / Nancy Wilson / Sue Ennis)
Heart


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 living, making us
give in
Hearts rolling in, taken back
on the tide
We're balanced together, ocean
upon the sky

Another night in a strange
town
Moonlight holding me light as
down
Voice of confusion inside of
me
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
