Aretha Franklin - Elusive Butterfly (originally by Bob Lind) lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 a 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 [Chorus] 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 bu*terfly of love [Verse 2] You might have heard my footsteps Echo softly in the distance through the canyons of your mind I might have even called your name As I ran searching after something to believe in You might have seen me runnin' Through the long-abandoned ruins of the dreams you left behind If you remember something there That glided past you followed close by heavy breathin' [Chorus] Don't be concerned, it will not harm you It's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure of Across my dreams with nets of wonder I chase the bright elusive bu*terfly of love [Outro] Across my dreams with nets of wonder I chase the bright elusive bu*terfly of love
