Lyrics
Butterfly
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're a butterfly
and you want to be
in flowers
and you want to meet
Dali lama
reach nirvana
because I love and you love me
I just want you to be
in flowers
with me
I'm a little child
and I want to be
hero in your arms
any fool can see
that it's nothing new
that I need you
because I love and you love me
I just want you see
the little child in me
there's a butterfly that's in my heart
it lives in me when we're apart
but preferably you stay with me
because I love you love me
I just want you to be the butterfly in me
