My Favorite Butterfly


Oh, beautiful butterfly

I think it is time

That I must let you go

And let you

Fly free

I know that I do not have

The flower for you

So I must let you go

Someday I hope

That you fly back to me

And maybe then I will have the perfect flower for you

But now you must fly away

I'll just stay here and watch you

Don't worry for me

I'll always be here for you
