There's a mansion on the moon

Honey we will be there soon

Into ships our dreams are tossed

Hold my hand and let's get lost

Baby Is a Butterfly

Silken wings and eagle eye

Watch her running up the sky

Oh Baby…is a butterfly

Rivers never stop to rest

Sparrows know that they are blessed

(going forth into the night

Beckoned by the city lights)

Baby Is a Butterfly

See her swimming in the sky

Hurts me so to hear her cry

Oh baby…is a butterfly

Staying all day at the fair

Evening primrose in her hair

Everything's a miracle

Now my cup is always full

Baby Is a Butterfly

Silken skin and eagle eye

We'll be angels by and by

Baby…is a butterfly

(alt. verse couplet)

Stars are hiding in the clouds

Branches gonna catch them now
