Elusive Butterfly-Artist: Bob Lind-peak Billboard position # 5 in 1966-Words and Music by Bob LindYou might wake up some mornin'To the sound of something moving past your window in the windAnd if you're quick enough to riseYou'll catch a fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadowOut on the new horizonYou may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wingsAnd if the sleep has left your earsYou might hear footsteps running through an open meadowDon't be concerned, it will not harm youIt's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure ofAcross my dreams with nets of wonderI chase the bright elusive butterfly of loveYou might have heard my footstepsEcho softly in the distance through the canyons of your mindI might have even called your nameAs I ran searching after something to believe inYou might have seen me runnin'Through the long-abandoned ruins of the dreams you left behindIf you remember something thereThat glided past you followed close by heavy breathin'Don't be concerned, it will not harm youIt's only me pursuing somethin' I'm not sure ofAcross my dreams with nets of wonderI chase the bright elusive butterfly of loveAcross my dreams with nets of wonderI chase the bright elusive butterfly of loveTranscribed by Robin Hood
