lyrics

Laughing, and I’m feeling so lucky
But I worry almost every single day
Oh, why am I thinking all the years away?

Dancing, look beyond the kitchen curtain
See that nothing’s shackling my feet
No reason I can’t go dancing in the street

At night time, the butterflies sleep inside of me
Hold the cage door open, but they don’t want to be freed

It takes time for significance to take root
No one’s really where they ought to be
A clay bust, a mugshot, a picture on TV

Come morning, I wonder if I’ll find the thread
That makes the day make sense, that gets me out of bed

Starlight, look at all the stars within us
Sounding like a million singing suns
Sing a song about the person I never could become
