You are bright as a night full of moon
Butterfly you have left much to soon
You have found you have wings and now you wish to fly
Please don't go, oh please don't say good bye.
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
In your mind there's someone far away
And you'll miss all the fun if you stay
You believe that love is elsewhere to be found
But you're wrong, it's here, just look around.
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
Look around, look around and you'll see
Better loved then by me you won't be
And if you fly away you break my heart in two
Please don't go -- I'm so in love with you.
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
Butterfly, my Butterfly now I know you must be free
Butterfly, don't flutter by, stay a little while with me.
Fell in love in the wink of an eye.
With a girl who was called Butterfly.
She said she loved me so, she could not let me go.
But still I had to say goodbye.
Butterfly, my butterfly I'll come home to you one day
Butterfly, my butterfly wait for me don't fly away.
Never fly in the heat of the sun
Fold the wings when the long day is done.
Stay home and wait for me till I get back and then
Counting the minutes one by one.
(Chorus)
When a man has a yearn to be free.
He will sail to the end of the sea.
I won't be gone too long but while I travel on
Just fold your wings and wait for me.
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
