Say my name like it's the last time,
Live today like its your last night,
We want to cry but we know its alright,
'Cause I'm with you and your with me,
Butterflies, butterflies, we were made to fly,
You and I, you and I, colors in the sky,
We could rule the world someday, somehow but we'll never be as bright as we are now

We're standing in a light that won't fade,
Tomorrow's coming but this won't change,
'Cause some days stay gold forever
The memory of being here with you,
Is one I'm gonna take my life through,
'Cause some days stay gold forever

Promise me you'll stay the way you are,
Keep the fire alive and stay young at heart,
When the storm feels like it could blow you out remember,
You got me and I got you, 'cause we are, butterflies, butterflies we were made to fly,
You and I, you and I colors in the sky,
When the innocence is dead and gone,
These will be the times we look back on

We're standing in a light that won't fade,

Tomorrow's coming but this won't change,
Cause some days stay gold forever
The memory of being here with you,
Is one I'm gonna take my life through,
'Cause some days stay gold forever

I won't, I won't let your memory go cause your colors they burn so bright,
Who knows, who knows what tomorrow will hold but I know that we'll be alright

'Cause we're
Butterflies, butterflies, we were made to fly,
You and I, you and I, colors in the sky,
We could rule the world someday, somehow but we'll never be as bright as we are now

We're standing in a light that won't fade,
Tomorrow's coming but this won't change,
Cause some days stay gold forever
The memory of being here with you,
Is one I'm gonna take my life through,
'Cause some days stay gold forever
