Little butterfly
Sing me a song
Take away my sins and all my wrongs
Little butterfly
Sing me a Gershwin tune
You know its true

Butterfly, Butterfly
Be here soon
Come and sing my favorite tune
You know me oh so well
Have you got something to tell?
Dig deeper into the well

Butterfly, little butterfly
Dig up my bones
Underneath the archaic stones
Dig deeper and deeper into the well
You will find a story to tell

I saw him one day
He made it wrong
I made a mistake
That cost me my life
He took out a gun
Towards my head
Did you hear the deafening blow?

Butterfly , butterfly
Did out my bones
Underneath the old, old stones
Its been so long
Since I saw his face

That’s my story to tell
I hope you have heard it well

Underneath all these stones
Are hidden my empty hollow bones

Little butterfly
Sing me a song
Take away my sins and all my wrongs
Little butterfly
Sing me a Gershwin tune
You know its true
