Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Butterfly, all alone

But can you fly, on your own?

Take your place in the world today

Butterfly, fly home

[Verse 2]

Cherry plum and chewing gum

Mini-skirts and cars that hum

See ya driving 'round with your head held high

Butterfly, flying home

[Chorus]

Stay awhile here with me

Up underneath the stars

When you go, you'll be free

'Cause you know who you are, you're a butterfly

[Verse 3]

Color scheme from a dream

A tapestry that's so supreme

I mean, I've never seen

Something so dang beautiful, oh child

As a butterfly flying home

[Verse 4]

Flying home

[Bridge]

You see, I'm howling at the moon

Day and night, awoo

They say I'm as crazy as a loon

But I'm alright

All dressed in white

[Verse 5]

Butterfly in the air

You can fly anywhere

A sight beyond compare

A sacred song and a sacred tone

It's a butterfly flying home
