"The Butterfly" lyrics - DOLORES O'RIORDAN

I sat there waiting and waiting
The sunlight filled the windowsill I sat upon
He could feel my eyes following him
As he fluttered
Helplessly

How could she fear?
Something so beautiful
I will take you in the palm of my hands
I will bring you
Into her world
For her to see

There is nothing to fear for
You're afraid of me
There is nothing to fear for
You're afraid of me

She sat there smiling as I approached her
My revelation for her to see
Her greatest fear
Was beautiful
And he wouldn't dream of hurting even me

How could she fear?
Something so beautiful
I will take you in the palm of my hands
I will bring you
Into her world
For her to see

There is nothing to fear for
You're afraid of me
There is nothing to fear for
You're afraid of me

You're afraid of me
