Here I Am - A Butterfly - Bjorn Vang

Here I am - a Butterfly 
Here I am - a butterfly 
I live life in slow motion 
Slowly crossing distant grounds 
Safely passing oceans 
So graciously I spread my wings 
Conducting all the whispers of the wind 

Here I am - a butterfly 
Displaying all my beauty 
I bring pleasure to your eyes 
As if that was my duty 
With all the vivid colours of my skin 
I long to prove myself from deep within 

I am free as I can be 
Still I dream of being free 
I am free as I can be 
But in my dreams I’m flying free 
If there’s more to being free 
I want more than I can see 

Here I am - a butterfly 
In the hands of perfect stranger 
Soon I am his chosen one 
To keep so safely in his shelter 
So proudly he shows me to the world 
Convincing me that I’m the only girl 

Here I am - a butterfly 
In my mantle-piece-display 
Pinned and marked for his collection 
So I cannot fly away 
From here my view is limited 
Freedom-dream - you had me trapped instead
