Amongst Butterflies

Paul Weller

The sunny sand we ran along

Everyday began upon

The summer's kiss of love and adventure

And every June that we fell into

Left a mark upon us too

Etched forever as a moment we'd remember

And we'd remember

The empty woods where we played

Every hour of every day

The holidays went on forever



And in the woods was a soldier's tomb

The ghost of which looked over you

And God was there amongst the trees

We felt his whisper as the summer's breeze

And every night and every day

I learnt to love it in a special way

As I remember

What it's like to walk amongst butterflies



Ooh, butterflies

Yeah, butterflies

Ooh, butterflies



And in the woods was a soldier's tomb

The ghost of which looked over you

And God was there amongst the trees

We felt his whisper as the summer's breeze

And every night and every day

Touch my soul that way



As I remember

What it's like to walk amongst butterflies



Butterflies
