lyrics version 1
Saw you underneath a leaf
And that's when I decided to be a thief
I said honey you're a pretty cocoon
I just know you're gonna come out soon
You're a butterfly
And yes I know and I love you
You gotta let it show pretty butterfly
Won't you come out just for me ye-eh
You're a butterfly
You're beautiful but you did not know it
You're a butterfly
You need love but you never show it
You need a-warmth
You need a-love
You need a-nature to give you a shove
If you want to start living you gotta start flying
Spread your wings and fill the sky
You're a butterfly
And yes I know you're a butterfly
You gotta let it show pretty butterfly
Won't you come out just for me yeah
Oh won't you come out just for me
Now look at you
You're a butterfly
And yes I know and I love you
But it's time to go pretty butterfly
Well it's time for me to set you free ye-eh
Well it's time for me to set you free
One more thing before you go
Something I never let anyone know
I am lonely, so confused
But I never will forget the day I drifted there
As I passed along your way
I saw you underneath a leaf
And that's when I decided to be a thief
I said honey you're a pretty cocoon
I just know you're gonna come out soon
You're a butterfly
Yes I know and I love you
But it's time to go pretty butterfly
Well it's time for me to set you free yeah
It's time for me to set you
Bye bye baby
And that's when I decided to be a thief
I said honey you're a pretty cocoon
I just know you're gonna come out soon
You're a butterfly
And yes I know and I love you
You gotta let it show pretty butterfly
Won't you come out just for me ye-eh
You're a butterfly
You're beautiful but you did not know it
You're a butterfly
You need love but you never show it
You need a-warmth
You need a-love
You need a-nature to give you a shove
If you want to start living you gotta start flying
Spread your wings and fill the sky
You're a butterfly
And yes I know you're a butterfly
You gotta let it show pretty butterfly
Won't you come out just for me yeah
Oh won't you come out just for me
Now look at you
You're a butterfly
And yes I know and I love you
But it's time to go pretty butterfly
Well it's time for me to set you free ye-eh
Well it's time for me to set you free
One more thing before you go
Something I never let anyone know
I am lonely, so confused
But I never will forget the day I drifted there
As I passed along your way
I saw you underneath a leaf
And that's when I decided to be a thief
I said honey you're a pretty cocoon
I just know you're gonna come out soon
You're a butterfly
Yes I know and I love you
But it's time to go pretty butterfly
Well it's time for me to set you free yeah
It's time for me to set you
Bye bye baby
