We used to cover
For each other
Despite the pain
And sacrifice
You were my life
And I was your lover
Even hearing your name
Gave me butterflies

Freezing nights
Waning of water
We tried to find
A place to hide
Fading of light
In the last days of summer
We fell out of touch

And out of sight
This is the end
The absence of color
Silence arrived
Of the northern light
I'm thinking of us
And if we'll recover
When it's time

(When it's time)
When it's time to make it right
A million things could happen
On our way back to life
And maybe once for all
The point of no return is when we die
Frozen butterflies
Are alive, eh

Melting ice
And the shivers
I can feel
Down my spine
Voices arise
In the glistening rivers
Migrating birds

In the sky
Where the Sun is slowly dancing with the Moon
My wings are keen to move, but I can't open them too soon
Turning left and turning right
In the fast returning light
Impatient to be flying back to you

When it's time to make it right
A million things could happen
On our way back to life
And maybe once for all
The point of no return is when we die
Frozen butterflies
Are alive
When it's time to make it right
A million things could happen
On our way back to life
And maybe once for all
The point of no return is when we die
Frozen butterflies
Are alive
