Butterflies

This song is part of my 2010 album, In Rewind.  It is an entry from my musical journal.  This was originally written to be sung at a friends surprise birthday party, but halfway through writing I didn't think the feel was what I was looking for, so I wrote another song for the party.  However, I came back to it because it was a beautiful picture of true friendship, whether it be a family member or not.  Beautiful friendships make for beautiful memories.

When you laugh I laugh too
At the edge I stood by you
When you cry I cry along
When you sang I learned your song

No two hearts could be so close
Not true friend I've shared to most
Every day is a blessing of love

Our memories are like butterflies
Painting rainbows on the skies of days gone by
And they color each cloud
Put the stars in my skies
Our memories are like butterflies
