CO 14  Chasing Butterflies                                                                           UK

 

What is this life if full of care

We stand there blindly unaware

Of all the beauty laid before our eyes

What is this life if noise and rush

Precludes from us the sacred hush

Of dandelion seeds floating through the skies

 

What is this life if stress and strain

Creates confusion in the brain

And blinkers us to all there is to know

 What is this life if speed and pace

Sets us on a pointless race

Squanders all in inconsequential show

 

Why chase after fortune? Why chase fame?

Why keep forging upwards to the skies?

Why go on pursuing this materialistic game?

I'll continue chasing butterflies.

I'll continue chasing butterflies.

 

What is this life if the daily grind

Slips us slowly off our mind

Sets us on a pointless charade

 What is this life if our joie de vivre

Goes under to insanity

Makes it all a soulless escapade

 

You can keep on striving but you'll never get your fill.

Keep that glint of envy in your eyes

Climb on up that greasy pole but there will be a bill

I'll continue chasing butterflies.

 

Happiness is found in the simplest of ways

A humble life will rarely go awry

You can chase your status to the end of your days

I'll continue chasing butterflies.

                I'll continue chasing butterflies.
