First Thursday - Butterflies II Lyrics

You're so lovely standing there
Your brilliant eyes, your windy hair
Yet your eyes are unaware
So lost within that vacant stare
I can feel it crawling up, I'm on the brink of love, but I can't get out
It's like that devil dove crawled up above to the angel of doubt

Don't you wanna go up and up
And up and up this ladder
Don't you wanna get back on top
To the rhythm of our laughter
Don't you wanna go climbing up
To someplace way up higher
Let the ash flow down our throats
Oh, the embers of our fire

You want to hide away in the back of a cave
But darling don't be
Upset, don't be afraid
Tell me you love this heart that tends to break

Don't you wanna go up and up
And up and up this ladder
Don't you wanna get back on top
To the rhythm of our laughter
Don't you wanna go climbing up
To someplace way up higher
Let the ash flow down our throats
Oh, the embers of our fire
