I Would Spin For You a Blanket
Out of Gold and Silver Threads
I Would Let My Gentle Bosom
Be a Pillow For Your Head
I'd Caress Your Perfect Body
On a Rosy Bed At Night
Play You Love Songs On a Golden Harp
And Sing You Butterflies
In a Diamond-studded Chalice
On An Emerald-plated Tray
I Would Bring to You Sweet Nectar
And Gifts of Bright Array
I Would Paint For You a Castle
In a Blue and Yellow Sky
Paint You Happy Ever After
And Paint You Butterflies
Chorus:
Butterflies, My Heart Flutters With the Notion
I Get High On the Wings of Sweet Emotion
Darling I, I Just Think of You and I Get Butterflies
I Get Close to You and I Get Butterflies
If Only I Were Magic
I Would Make the Wishes True
I Would Wave a Magic Wand
And Be in Paradise With You
But I'm Just a Girl That Loves You
I Will Love You All My Life
But I Do Have a Magic Feeling
And It Gives Me Butterflies
Chorus:
Butterflies, My Heart Flutters With the Notion
I Get High On the Wings of Sweet Emotion
Darling I, I Just Think of You and I Get Butterflies
We Should Fly Away Together, You and I
Off to Paradise Forever, I Get High
I Get Close to You and I Get Butterflies
I Think of You and I Get Butterflies
Fade:
I Will Spin For You a Blanket Out of Gold and Silver Threads
If Only I Were Magic, I Would Make the Wishes True
I Would Wave a Magic Wand and Be in Paradise With You
