[Verse 5]
When you love someone so deeply they become your life
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
Blindly, I imagined I could keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open up my hands and watch you rise
[Verse 6]
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
[Verse 7]
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
[Verse 8]
I have learned that beauty has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled or their spirit dies
You have given me the courage to be all that I can
And I truly feel that your heart will lead you
Right back to me when you're ready to land
[Verse 9]
Butterfly
Butterfly
Butterfly (You'll become a butterfly)
And spread your wings and fly
[Verse 10]
When you're ready
When you're ready
Butterfly
Whenever you
Butterfly
[Verse 11]
Come spread your wings and just fly
Come spread your wings and just fly
Come spread your wings and just fly
Butterfly (Butterfly)
When you love somebody (Love somebody)
More than I can say (More than I can say)
The wings of me succumb to those
Feelings of insecurity
[Verse 12]
Spread your wings, spread your wings
Don't wait, don't wait, don't wait
For you (For you)
Have become (Have become)
The butterfly
[Verse 13]
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
[Verse 14]
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
[Verse 15]
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
[Verse 16]
Oh

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you will become a butterfly
Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
