Caught In Your Light

Bobby Ferguson

The moth is drawn to the light,
the way I'm drawn to you,
am I then a moth,
If to you I flew.

Flickering lights to lure them,
fluttering eyes lure me,
If to them the light is beauty,
a moth like them I'll be.

As your light shines brightly,
a moth I'll be for you,
all I saw was your bright light,
then to you I flew.
