Love Is like A Butterfly.

Love Is like A Butterfly.

Lyrics and Vocals: American singer, songwriter, actress, philanthropist, and businesswoman Ms Dolly Rebecca Parton.

Ms Dolly Rebecca Parton.

According to Ms Parton’s lyrics; love arrives quietly, like something you almost don’t notice at first. It lingers in the air with a softness that feels both fragile and endless. It doesn’t rush, instead it drifts and lingers before choosing you gently and finally settling, like something so delicate you’re afraid to hold too tightly, yet so beautiful that you never want to let it go. The song was released in 1974 as one of her signature country hits.

Love Is like A Butterfly.

Love Is like A Butterfly.

Love is like a butterfly,
As soft and gentle as a sigh,
The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings.
Love makes your heart feel strange inside,
It flutters like soft wings in flight,
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing.
I feel it when you’re with me,
It happens when you kiss me,
That rare and gentle feeling that I feel inside.
Your touch is soft and gentle,
Your kiss is warm and tender,
Whenever I am with you, I think of butterflies.
Love is like a butterfly
The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings.
Love makes your heart feel strange inside,
It flutters like soft wings in flight,
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing.
Your laughter brings me sunshine,
Every day is springtime,
And I am only happy when you are by my side.
How precious is this love we share,
How very precious, sweet and rare,
Together, we belong like daffodils and butterflies.
Love is like a butterfly,
As soft and gentle as a sigh,
The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings.
Love makes your heart feel strange inside,
It flutters like soft wings in flight,
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing.
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing.
(Love is like a butterfly)
