Gary Lewis & The Playboys – Elusive Butterfly

You might wake up some mornin’
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

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 butterfly of love

Verse 2

You might have heard my footsteps
Echo softly in the distance through thе canyons of your mind
I might have even callеd your name
As I ran searchin’ after something to believe in
Though it’s too late for changin’
Someday you might look back exploring times you left behind
If you remember something there
That glided past you followed close by heavy breathing

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 butterfly of love

Outro

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
