the ocean and the butterfly

Dave Matthews Band

Once I had a dream
Stuck somewhere in between
The water and the beach, yeah
Both worlds out of reach
So with elegance and style
Caught a wave a took a ride

This empty plastic bag
On a starry night floats into the black
Look at how she dip and dives
But no one could ever know
How many miles she'll go
Or how she does with such elegance and style
Look at how she dip and dives

Take only what you need
Like the water and the seed
So after we are gone
There'll be something good to carry on
All this elegance and style
Dancin' with the butterfly

No maths, no miracles
It's all grown mechanical
Machines by cell's design
To float into the sky
With such elegance and style
The ocean and the butterfly
