Lyrics

Baby is a butterfly

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
