Butterflies

It was quiet
A place where echoes used to sleep
I loved the calm, I loved the deep
Loneliness was walking by my side
Until your voice found me there tonight

It was a quiet place to be
Just the dark and only me
A patient heart, yet cold and blind
Hiding from the world outside

Then you showed me power of your voice
It broke the silence, left no choice
Soft, playful, kind, and strong
Your sound became my favorite song

You turned my silence into light
A whisper dancing through the night
Every tone, a healing grace
A voice that filled my empty space

Your sound, giving me butterflies
Lifting me beyond the skies
Your laugh, sweetest sweet to my ears
Washed away my lonely years
Your voice, prettiest thing that talks to me
A storm that set my spirit free
Your sound my forever light

(You showed me
How silence breathes)
(Your voice... inside of me)

I lived in shadows, still and clear
Found my peace in what I feared
But your tone, so patient, kind
Rewrote the silence in my mind

Now I see in every sound
A world that's turning all around
No more hiding, no more pain
Your voice keeps calling my name

You were silence, you were storm
The calm that keeps my heart warm
Playful, gentle, brave, and true
My world awoke because of you

Your sound, giving me butterflies
You're the sunrise in my eyes
Every whisper, every sigh
Made me learn to live, to try
Your voice my reason, my guide
My strength, my peace inside
Your sound my forever light

(Your sound soft, kind, strong)
(You showed me where I belong)
And now
