about

Also partly inspired by a dream about dark, poisenous butterflies. A very sensual song. The first of a couple of songs that were inspired by my online dating experience.

lyrics

melodies move between us
rhythms rise and fall
the songs have always been there
and some will stay

i dreamed i opened up a door that said forbidden
i fell five floors down and woke in your arms

chorus:
poison me dark butterfly
in the morning i'll rise

if you're lonely you'll tell the paper
or just your guitar
if you're unsure of the key
you just sing your lines

i dreamed i kissed slowly
unsure of who i am
we talked in different tongues
and missed the kiss mid air

chorus
we seek each other like flowers seek the light
you're a cloud in my sky
im a wave on your sea

you move inside me
like lovers move
at least in my story
at least in my song
