• Fly away little butterfly
    Just fly far far away

    Fly out the open door
    pass the steel bars
    Fly over the highest trees
    beyond the many hues of greens

    Fly away little butterfly
    Just fly far far away

    Fly into the heavens
    if you think you can reach them
    Fly below the brightest stars
    if the twinkling lights don't blind you

    Fly away little butterfly
    Fly far far away

    Fly away and forgive me for what I thought to do to you
    for it was I who set the trap lined in the sweetest nectar
    close the lid to your glassy prison as if you had done me wrong

    Fly away and never remember I almost tried to pin you down
    i wanted to keep you as if you were a trinket
    pierce your wings with my unkind needles

    Fly away little butterfly
    Just fly far far away
