Verse 1
The room went quiet, but my heart still knew
Love doesn’t leave just because it flew
I still see your colors in the morning light
Purple wings dancing at the edge of night
And every tear I cried became a prayer
Sent to the sky, hoping you were there
I hold my belly, hold my breath, hold on
Trying to believe love is never gone
Pre-Chorus
And when the wind moves slow
I swear I know
You’re near me
Chorus
You’re my butterfly after the storm
Soft little sign that I still carry on
You left your love in the air I breathe
In every broken part of me
And though heaven called you before I was ready
Your memory still holds me steady
You’re not gone, you just learned how to fly
My butterfly, my butterfly
Verse 2
There are days I smile and days I break
Days I still don’t know how much I can take
But love like yours don’t fade away
It wraps around me every day
In little kicks of hope, in quiet skies
In sun through curtains, in lullabies
I speak your name and the whole world slows
Like even time itself still knows
Pre-Chorus
When flowers lean and sway
I hear you say
“You’re stronger than you know”
Chorus
You’re my butterfly after the storm
Soft little sign that I still carry on
You left your love in the air I breathe
In every broken part of me
And though heaven called you before I was ready
Your memory still holds me steady
You’re not gone, you just learned how to fly
My butterfly, my butterfly
Bridge
If I could hold you once again
I’d tell you where I’ve always been
Half in hope and half in pain
Still loving you through every rain
And if you see me from up there
Stay in the light, stay in the air
Leave me feathers, leave me grace
Leave me strength to face today
Final Chorus
You’re my butterfly after the storm
The kind of love that keeps me warm
You live in every prayer I send
A bond that doesn’t have an end
And when my world feels cold and heavy
Your little wings still come and get me
You’re not gone, you just learned how to fly
My butterfly… my butterfly
