"Butterfly Wings", sebuah mahakarya musik dari Owl City, menggemakan sebuah kisah alegoris tentang pencarian akan cinta dan koneksi yang abadi. Dengan lirik yang puitis dan metafora yang memikat, lagu ini mengeksplorasi ikatan emosional yang kita cari, berharap untuk menemukan perlindungan dan kebersamaan dalam badai kehidupan. Apakah kita adalah tetesan hujan yang rapuh atau sebutir pasir yang tak berarti, kita semua merindukan seseorang untuk menjadi badai petir kita, pantai kita yang berbintang, dan pelukan hangat yang membuat kita tetap terlindungi dan dicintai.
Butterfly Wings Lyrics
Owl City
If i was a raindrop
would you be my thunderstorm?
It's cold so surround me
With rain clouds to keep me warm
I feel like I'm falling
So darling don't let me go
The thought is appalling but should I slip away
Into the stormy sea will you remember me?
Asleep in a warm cocoon
We dream of lovely things
We're both gonna wake up soon
So we hope that tomorrow brings
Us our butterfly wings
If i was a grain of sand
Would you be Miami Beach
So dusty with starlight
Close your eyes and cuddle close to me
I'll try not to wake you
Or make a sound while you're dozing off
But in the night should the high tides sweep me away from you
Tell me again my dear will you be waiting here?
Whenever we leave the ground
And take to the sky
I'll smile as I'm gazing down
Cause I've always wonder why we won't need feathers to fly
would you be my thunderstorm?
It's cold so surround me
With rain clouds to keep me warm
I feel like I'm falling
So darling don't let me go
The thought is appalling but should I slip away
Into the stormy sea will you remember me?
Asleep in a warm cocoon
We dream of lovely things
We're both gonna wake up soon
So we hope that tomorrow brings
Us our butterfly wings
If i was a grain of sand
Would you be Miami Beach
So dusty with starlight
Close your eyes and cuddle close to me
I'll try not to wake you
Or make a sound while you're dozing off
But in the night should the high tides sweep me away from you
Tell me again my dear will you be waiting here?
Whenever we leave the ground
And take to the sky
I'll smile as I'm gazing down
Cause I've always wonder why we won't need feathers to fly
