If you gave me only one wish

I wouldn't want to feel this way

They told me I'd have your memory

But all I want is you to stay

And I cant stop my mind from haunting me

It's like a scar on a butterfly's wing

I wanted you to know

This beautiful pain that I feel

Is all because of you

And one day these bones will heal

And they'll leave me with the truth

And i'll give you everything

If it's the last thing that I do

This beautiful pain

This beautiful pain

This beautiful pain

For you

If I sailed the world on stormy seas

Chasing sun light that I can't see

I was a dreamer here before

Before I woke up and fell to the floor

And I'd climb to heaven

If I could find you

Even with the scar

This butterfly flew

I wanted you to know

This beautiful pain that I feel

Is all because of you

And one day these bones will heal

And they'll leave me with the truth

And i'll give you everything

If it's the last thing that I do

This beautiful pain

This beautiful pain

This beautiful pain

For you

And all I'll ever need

And all I'll ever be

Within every part of me

Is this..

This beautiful pain that I feel

Is all because of you

And one day these bones will heal

And I gave you everything

Cause it was all I ever knew

This beautiful pain

This beautiful pain

This beautiful pain

For you
