Don't bother me,
Don't smother me
With your unwanted touch.
Just look at me,
...
When all doors seem to be closed
And all roads lead to nowhere,
When questions fall on deaf ears
And answers are not being found
...
Grey is the sky, no wonder why
My thoughts won't fly, up soaring high.
Dull clouds hang low
And that is so depressing!
...
The Butterfly
Don't bother me,
Don't smother me
With your unwanted touch.
Just look at me,
Admire me.
Forget about the catch.
I'm free - you see -
And love to be
That way a little longer.
You have no right
To bother me to smother me -
Because you are the stronger.
