Chorus:
Butterflies fly. Butterflies fly.
Spread out your wings.
On the warm breeze you glide.
Butterflies fly. Butterflies fly.
I like to watch butterflies.
-
When you were a caterpillar crawling on a leaf,
Did you think you could fly?
And if you could, what you’d see?
Did you think it was impossible?
Did you think there was no way?
I wondered ‘bout the answers as you inched away. Chorus:
-
The next time I saw you, you had spun a cocoon.
All tucked inside, there wasn’t much room.
I watched and I waited while you hung upside down.
But I walked out one morning and you weren’t around. Chorus:
-
I was running through a field just the other day
When I noticed a butterfly coming my way.
It flew past my shoulder, landed on my thumb.
As I looked it over, I knew it was the one. Chorus:
