Poor Butterfly

Poor butterfly, 'neath the blossoms waiting
Poor butterfly for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours, the hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears, she murmurs low
The moon and I know that he'd be faithful
I'm sure he'll come to me by and by
But if he don't come back, then I never sigh or cry
I just must die, poor butterfly

Poor butterfly, 'neath the blossoms waiting
Poor butterfly, for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours, the hours pass into years
And as she smiles through the tears, she murmurs low
The moon and I, we know that he'd be faithful
I'm sure that he'll come to me by and by
But if he don't come back, then I never, never sigh or cry
I just must die, I'm a butterfly

Poor butterfly, 'neath the blossoms waiting
Poor butterfly, for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours, and hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears, she murmurs low
The moon and I, know that he'd be faithful
I'm sure he'll come home, he'll be here by and by
But if he don't come back, then I'll never sigh or cry
I just must die, poor butterfly

I'm a butterfly
