Butterflies

 
It was five years ago this week  
When I gazed into two beautiful eyes  
She was a girl, not yet at her peak  
And I was a boy filled with butterflies  
 
And now so much time has passed  
As I glance back into those eyes  
She went from a girl to a woman so fast  
But I'm still a boy filled with butterflies  
 
She gave birth to a daughter  
Much to my surprise  
In my heart I'll always want her  
And to see those beautiful eyes  
 
Searching beyond my reflection  
Through her eyes to her soul  
Looking for a small section  
She will let my heart control  
 
I wonder every time I kiss her  
Does she realize  
I want to tell her that I love her  
But I'm still a boy filled with butterflies  
 
Someday I hope she'll discover  
The words I write are not lies  
And I wish that I could forever  
Gaze into those beautiful eyes
