It dances freely in the air
Then settling softly here and there
It’s nature’s beauty, here to share
This butterfly I’ve found

And so I’ve seen them come and go
Their gaily-colored wings they show
Yet special is this one, I know
This butterfly I’ve found

This special one, its gifts are true
In everything I’ve seen it do
Its gifts are lovely thoughts of you
This butterfly I’ve found
