She's a Butterfly
Martina McBride
She remembers when she first got her wings
And how she opened up that day
she learned to sing
Then the colors came, erased the
black and white
And her whole world changed
when she realized
She's a butterfly, pretty as the crimson sky
Nothing's ever gonna bring her down
And everywhere she goes
Everybody knows she's so glad to be alive
She's a butterfly
Like the purest light in a darkened world
So much hope inside such a lovely girl
You should see her fly, it's almost magical
It makes you want to cry, she's so beautiful
God bless the butterfly,
give her the strength to fly
Never let her wings touch the ground
God bless the butterfly,
give her strength to fly
Never let her wings touch the ground
God bless the butterfly,
give her the strength to fly
Never let her wings touch the ground
God bless the butterfly,
give her the strength to fly
Never let her wings touch the ground
Challenge Translation:
Butterflies are it this week: large ones, small ones colorful ones. whatever kind you can find.
EPEC-extra points for extra cookies
If your card includes shades of blue and extra, extra cookies if your card includes kitties or dogs. Though I do have to say - if I actually worked so hard to make cookies this beautiful and they got eaten - well, I'd have to cry. Thank God they are cyber cookies.
