1
Not yet a woman and certainly not a child
2
But I was caught somewhere in the middle
3
On that one Friday afternoon
4
And I, I remember mama saying, "It's time for you to go
5
Go out on and change the world and become
6
All that you have dreamed of"
7
And as the tears that she was crying
8
Fell from her face and shoulders she said
9
"Don't forget who you are child, where you
10
Come from, where you're goin'
11
'Cause I'm always gonna be here for you
12
Fighting in your corner
13
So with every bow you take
14
Take one for those that came before you"
15
[Chorus:]
16
Fly, Fly Butterfly Fly
17
Stand upon these two shoulders of mine
18
Spread those wings of yours and fly
19
Now I'm a woman and I've got a child
20
And I can't believe the day's gonna come
21
When she tells me that it's time to soar
22
And I don't know what I'm gonna do
23
Not sure what I'm gonna tell her
24
Maybe don't forget who you are child
25
Where you come from, where you're going
26
'Cause I'm always gonna be here for you
27
Fighting in your corner
28
So with every bow you take
29
Take one for those that came before ya
30
[Chorus:]
31
There is something sacred
32
About the letting go of those we want to hold
33
So tightly to, but somehow we know
34
They must move on
35
On for those who have a dream to make our future better
36
And on for those who will earn their wings
37
In spite of wind and weather
38
You tell 'em love is waiting there
39
Forever in their corner
40
So with every bow they take
41
They'll take one for those that came before them
42
[Chorus:]
