by Mel Maryns - Butter Wings
This is a song about someone missing someone they used to know, who has since gone away. The singer dreams of them coming back, but realizes they're not there when they wake up. The chorus expresses the singer's wish that their loved one had "butter wings" so they wouldn't fly away and disappear, but they know they can't hold onto them. The singer questions if they should try to keep the dream alive by cutting their wings, but ultimately decides against it.
[verse 1]I had a dream
the wind brought you back to me
blowing the time
to those days that were left behind[pre chorus]don’t wake me up
don’t mess it up
don’t let me down
don’t let me fall
just let me touch you one last time[chorus]oh how I wish you had butter wings
butterfly
don’t fly away my dream
butterfly
butter wings
don’t fly away my dream
oh no
what if I cut your wings?[verse 2]frozen in time
I keep asking why
and I
I cant say goodbye[pre chorus]don’t wake me up
don’t mess it up
don’t let me down
don’t let me fall
just let me touch you one last time[chorus]oh how I wish you had butter wings
butterfly
don’t fly away my dream
butterfly
butter wings
don’t fly away my dream
butterfly
don’t fly away my dream
butterfly
butter wings
don’t fly away my dream
don’t fly away my dream
the wind brought you back to me
blowing the time
to those days that were left behind[pre chorus]don’t wake me up
don’t mess it up
don’t let me down
don’t let me fall
just let me touch you one last time[chorus]oh how I wish you had butter wings
butterfly
don’t fly away my dream
butterfly
butter wings
don’t fly away my dream
oh no
what if I cut your wings?[verse 2]frozen in time
I keep asking why
and I
I cant say goodbye[pre chorus]don’t wake me up

don’t let me down
don’t let me fall
just let me touch you one last time[chorus]oh how I wish you had butter wings
butterfly
don’t fly away my dream
butterfly
butter wings
don’t fly away my dream
I’m awake
and you’re not
I’m afraid
I am lost
I’m alone
and you’re gone
I am back
on my own
why won’t you come back ?
butterfly
don’t fly away my dream
butterfly
butter wings
don’t fly away my dream
don’t fly away my dream
oh no
what if I cut your wings?
