If I started all over again
Would you take me back my friend?
Cause I know how the story ends
And I won't let it end that way again
Cause I feel you in my dreams
Yes I see you in my sleep
When I wake up you're not there
Yesterday I saw a butterfly
It looked majestic in the sky
I asked it why, why, why are you so happy?
You only have one day till you disappear
Out into the atmosphere
Why is it you fly so high
And why is it you never cry?
Why, why, why?
Let's go back to how it was before
We thought we'd live forever more
Let's go back to how it was back then
So I can call you more than just a friend
Wish that I could live in fantasy
And then you'd show me how to be free
Wish that you could hold me one more time
And then the rest would just be history
Yesterday I saw a butterfly
It looked majestic in the sky
I asked it why, why, why are you so happy?
You only have one day till you disappear
Out into the atmosphere
Why is it you fly so high
And why is it you never cry?
Why, why, why?
Yesterday I saw a butterfly
It looked majestic in the sky
I asked it why, why, why are you so happy?
I asked it why, why, why are you so happy?
