Illusions, Realities and Catching Butterflies

Like a piece is missing
Been torn away
Feeling like your dead
Even though you're still breathing

Missing something great
Missing something dear

You could see it right in front of you
But never touch it
You could know it's always there
But feel as if it never was

Don't worry
Don't fret
It's not much farther
It's not much longer

It's in your grasp
It's in your sights
A little more time
A little more wait

It's not flying away
It's not far now
Grab your butterfly net
And catch it yourself

It's worth all your while
It's worth all the time
Catch it quick
And hold it dear

Never let it go
Never let it fade
It's like a candle flame
Or the beat of a butterfly's wing

Gentle as a heart pumps
Quiet as the snow falls
Silent like the wind moves
Quick like the lightning strikes

Like a piece was always there
Been put back together
Feeling so alive
Even though your breath has been taken away

Having something great
Having something dear
