Lyrics
Say, "Butterfly up in the sky"
I got a story to say
And I'll tell you why
I'm searchin'
You see, my friend
I need someone
Who feels and needs the same as I
I'm searchin'
What's right, is right
What's wrong, is wrong
I'm gonna sing my song all day long
I'm searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin'
Now what went down, I don't believe
And I just know I can't conceive
I'm searchin'
When is love is gone and one believes
That love will come like brand new leaves
I'm searchin'
And then the day when I will say
That my soul lives a truthful way
I'm searchin'
Say, "Butterfly up in the sky"
I got a story to say
And I'll tell you why
I'm searchin'
You see, my friend
I need someone
Who feels and needs the same as I
I'm searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin', searchin'
Searchin'
Say, "Butterfly up in the sky"
I got a story to say
And I'll tell you why
I'm searchin'
Searchin' for my right mind
Searchin' for my right mind
Searchin' for a new love
Searchin' for my true time
Searchin' for completion
Searchin' for completion
Searchin' for the true time
Searchin' for a new love
