Butterflies Are Free - Sandra King

You said "Goodbye..." 
Then you were gone 
You said "Don't cry―" 
"Don't let the memories linger on." 
You taught me how 
then cut the strings― 
And now you've left me here alone 
With broken wings 
Now through the tears I long for 
How it used be 
Those golden days 
When love came into view 
The way you smiled 
And opened up my life for me 
No asking why, you made me fly 
Nowhere to run 
Nowhere to hide 
Where is the magic carousel 
We used to ride? 
What can I do? 
What can I say? 
My words was you 
And now my world has flown away... 
I was so young 
And life was such a mystery 
Until you came 
And showed me that you knew 
You swept away the shadows and you set me free 
A butterfly― so soon to die.... 
You took the sun― 
You took the light― 
And left me here alone 
To wander in the night 
It's just a dream― a fantasy― 
No-one can ever say that 
Butterflies are free...
