作词 : Mariah Carey
作曲 : Mariah Carey/Walter Afanasieff
When you love someone so deeply
They become your life

It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside

Blindly I imagined I could
Keep you under glass

Now I understand to hold you
I must open up my hands
And watch you rise
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly

Oh fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me

We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light

Wild horses run unbridled

Or their spirit dies

You have given me the courage

To be all that I can
And I truly feel your heart will
Lead you back to me when you're
Ready to land
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Oh fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me

We truly were meant to be
Meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
Butterfly

I can't pretend these tears
Aren't overflowing steadily

I can't prevent this hurt from almost overtaking me

But I will stand and say goodbye

For you'll never be mine

Until you know the way it feels to fly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly

For you have become a butterfly
Oh fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
I will know you're mine
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly butterfly
So flutter through the sky

Butterfly

Fly

Spread your wings and fly

Butterfly
