Brushed
my feet
my teeth
my knee
and
comb the hair
combed my hair
comb hair
Had
me everywhere
You were
there
When I looked back
You had
it all alone
Make a living
And
Must of been as hard as it
couldn't
would
could
be
And when I couldn't
sweep
sleep
at night
Scared things wouldn't turn out right
You would hold
my hand
my tent
I can't
And
Caterpillar in the tree
How you wonder
you'll be
far
But
dream
Wish you may and wish you might
Won't you
Don't you
Want you
worry
Hold on tight
I promise you there will come
one day
today
a day
Butterfly fly away

Butterfly fly away
Got you're wings
Now

Take

those
whose
dreams
And

All along you know just
what will do
what you do

Butterfly, Butterfly, Butterfly
Butterfly fly away
