someday (the butterfly)

sometimes i feel just like

the butterfly inside the jar

i beat my wings with all my might

and though i try

i never get that far

always up against invisible walls

someday i'm gonna break free

and leave it all behind me

and i'll be all i was meant to be

someday i'm gonna break through

and when i do

i'll fly away home to you

until then i'll trust to fate

and use the time to make my wings stronger

as i press them against the walls of this place

and pray that it won't be much longer

lord don't let these wings forget how to fly

someday i'm gonna break free

and leave it all behind me

and i'll be all i was meant to be

someday i'm gonna break through

and when i do

i'll fly away home to you

someday

i'm gonna fly away

spread my wings to find a better day

lord give me the strength to wait

the faith to hope for someday

someday i'm gonna break free

and leave it all behind me

and i'll be all i was meant to be

someday i'm gonna break through

and when i do

i'll fly away home to you
