Butterflies Lyrics

I don't wanna fall so fast
But I'm open
They always say that good things never last
And I know 'cause I've been broken
I'm tryin' to protect my heart
But you're making it so hard
And I guess it's safe to say
You take my pain away

And I just wanna hold you all night long
Whenever I'm around you, nothing's wrong
I'm hoping that you'll always be around
You got me on a high, I don't wanna come down
And I love it, I love it (these butterflies)
Yeah I love it, I love it (I'm on a high)
Yeah, I love it, I love it
And I just wanna love on you (ooh)

Ever since you crossed my path
Everything is different
You always know just how to make me laugh
You got me all up in my feelings
And as much as I love the feeling
I hate it, it gets me frustrated
Wanna say just how I feel
But don't know how you would take it
Why do you do what you do to me?
Got me doing things that I don't do usually
I promised myself I wouldn't fall
But every time I see you, I just wanna risk it all
And baby, yeah, I know it ain't right
But the chemistry we have is so hard to fight

And I just wanna hold you all night long
Whenever I'm around you, nothing's wrong
I'm hoping that you'll always be around
You got me on a high, I don't wanna come down
And I love it, I love it (these butterflies)
Said I love it, I love it (I'm on a high)
Love (And I just wanna love on)
And I just wanna love on you

Just wanna love, just wanna love on ya (uh, uh)
Just wanna love, just wanna love on ya (uh, uh)
Ay, ay (uh, uh)

And I just wanna know you would catch me if I fall
If you tell me yeah, boy I might just risk it all
If you tell me no, it's okay, then I will leave (ooh)
I hope you feel the same, you're the only one I see
I see, I see
Just wanna love, just wanna love on ya
Just wanna love, just wanna love on ya (uh, uh)
Ay, ay (uh, uh)

What is the Meaning of Butterflies?

In this emotive track, Queen Naija explores the complexities of newfound love and the vulnerability it brings. The lyrics poignantly capture the tension between guarding one's heart and succumbing to the exhilarating rush of affection, symbolized by "butterflies." The artist articulates a fear of rapid emotional involvement ("I don't wanna fall so fast") juxtaposed with an irresistible attraction to her partner, whose presence alleviates her pain and fills her with joy. As she oscillates between caution and surrender, Naija confronts the risk inherent in opening up to someone new, highlighting both the fear of potential heartbreak and the hope for mutual commitment. Ultimately, "Butterflies" is a heartfelt expression of longing to love freely without reservation, while grappling with self-protective instincts shaped by past hurts.
