Butterfly On A Wheel - The Mission

Silver and gold and it’s growing cold

Autumn leaves lay as thick as thieves

Shivers down your spine chill you to the bone

'cos the mandolin wind is the melody that turns your heart to stone

The heat of your breath carving shadows in the mist

Every angel has the wish that she’s never been kissed

A broken dream haunting in your sleep

And hiding in your smile

A secret you must keep, love cuts you deep

Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

There’s no scarlet in you, lay your veil down for me As sure as god made wine, you can’t wrap your arms around a memory

Take warmth from me, cold autumn wind cut sharp as a knife

And in the dark for me, you’re the candle flame that flickers to life

Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

Love breaks the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

Wise man say all is fair in love and war

And there’s no right or wrong in the design of love

And i could only watch as the wind crushed your wings

Broken and torn, crushed like a flower under the snow

And like the flower in spring

Love will rise again to heal your wings

Love heals the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

Love heals the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

Love heals the wings of a butterfly on a wheel

Love heals the wings of a butterfly on a wheel
