Yesterday, I went outside With my momma’s mason jar Caught a lovely butterfly
When I woke up today Looked in on my fairy pet She had withered all away No more sighing in her breast
I’m sorry for what I did I did what my body told me to I didn’t mean to do you harm Every time I pin down what I think I want, it slips away The ghost slips away
I guess you’re as real as me Maybe I can live with that Maybe I need fantasy Life of chasing butterfly
I’m sorry for what I did I did what my body told me to I didn’t mean to do you harm Every time I pin down what I think I want, it slips away The ghost slips away
I told you I would return When the robin makes his nest But I ain’t never coming back
