Wang Lee Hom-The Things You Don't Know


How many times does a butterfly blink
Before it learns to fly?
The sky is sprinkled over with countless stars
But how many will remain there?

Even as I fly, you fall
So close I can hear you breathe
So sorry I didn't keep hold of you

You don't know why I had to leave you
How I could ignore you every cry
All the while the downpour of your tears shattering the ground
So clearly pierced my heart
You don't know why I had to keep away
Circling in the sky above, just out of sight
So many are the things you never knew

Circling in the sky above, just out of sight
Too many are the things you never knew
