Butterfly Boy

Hey you say you were a butterfly
I see you in a peaceful field
Hey you say you were a butterfly
I see you in a beautiful garden
I wanna catch you catch you catch you butterfly boy
I wanna catch you catch you catch you butterfly boy
Tell me tell me tell me tell me where to go
Tell me tell me tell me tell me what to do
Flaming in the hazy sunlight
Dancing in the starlit sky
I can see the pixie dust falling
From the wings of my
Butterfly boy
Tell me tell me tell me tell me how to get it
Butterfly boy don't fly away
