Lyrics

Butterflies

Set

So take me to your open skies
I just want to feel alive
I wanna feel your butterflies

Do you ever fantasise
'Bout me when you close your eyes
'Cuz I can feel your butterflies

Wanna feel your butterflies
Wanna feel your butterflies
Wanna feel your butterflies
Wanna feel your butterflies

So take me to your open skies
I just want to feel alive
I wanna feel your butterflies

Do you ever fantasise
'Bout me when you close your eyes
'Cuz I can feel your butterflies

Wanna feel your butterflies
Wanna feel your butterflies
Wanna feel your butterflies
Wanna feel your butterflies
Wanna feel your butterflies
Wanna feel your
Wanna feel your
Feel your butterflies

Oh I wanna feel your butterflies
Yeah
Oh I wanna feel your butterflies
