Through The Years

Carla & Paul aka Butterfly Division

We were young, we were wild, chasing dreams without a plan,
Laughing loud, staying up, writing stories in the sand.
Time moved on, like the waves, washing footprints out to sea,
But somehow, through the distance, you were always there for me.

Oh, we learned to fall, we learned to rise,
Saw the truth behind our eyes.
Every scar, every tear, made us stronger through the years.

We’re not perfect, but who is?
We’ve got battle wounds and reckless hearts to give.
Through the storms and through the shine,
You have always been a hand in mine.
We made mistakes, we’ve come undone,
But that’s how we found the ones we love.

Lines have formed on our skin, stories whispered in the light,
We’ve lost things, we’ve let go, but some things still feel right.
Love’s not gold, love’s not pure, it’s a fire that learns to burn,
And every flaw, every crack, is a lesson that we’ve earned.

Oh, we learned to break, we learned to mend,
Turned our strangers into friends.
Every dream, every fight, led us here into the light.
We’re not perfect, but who is?
We’ve got battle wounds and reckless hearts to give.
Through the storms and through the shine,
You have always been a hand in mine.
We made mistakes, we’ve come undone,
But that’s how we found the ones we love.

Years will pass, and we’ll look back,
At the roads we walked and the love we had.
Through every fall, through every climb,
You were my heart through all this time.

We’re not perfect, but that’s alright,
We found love in all the flaws of life.
Through the years, through the change,
Some things fade, but love remains.
