Measuring Marigolds - Wax & Wane Lyrics

If I was a butterfly
C-hanging on a tree
Everybody'd stop and sigh
When they caught sight of me
Sunlight sparkle on my wings
Nectar sweet as tea
If I was a butterfly
C-hanging on a tree

But would they stop and swoon
For a little brown cocoon
Could they see that someday soon
I'd become a butterfly
C-hanging on a tree

If I was a snowflake falling
Laughing through the sky
They'd all try to catch me
On their tongue as I spun by
I'd lead them and I'd tease them
C glimmer in my eye
If I was a snowflake falling
Laughing through the sky

But soon comes Mr. Sun
To melt through all our fun
Soon they walk right past my puddle
But once I was a snowflake
Laughing through the sky

Well if I was the moon above
I'd wax and I would wane
Cnd in my glow they'd dance below
Like moths around a flame
I'd light up all their favorite nights
Caress them in their pain
If I was the moon above
I'd wax and I would wane

Cnd though I'd come and go
Well everybody knows
The tides will always ebb and flow
If I was the moon above
I'd wax and I would wane
I'd wax and I would wane
Yes if I was the moon above
I'd wax and I would wane
I'd wax and I would wane...
