Laura Veirs - Black butterfly lyrics

rate me

<b>Black butterfly</b> by <i>Laura Veirs</i><br />Goodbye black butterfly

You can take those perfect wings

Into outer space

'Cos there's no place left in this blood

For your restless fluttering

Your sleepless ways

(Refrain)

Black butterfly flutter me by

Kick a little bitter into the night

Spark of the stars leaving on my heart

Trying to be good by you

Alright, alright

Salt breeze rose city sunset

The bats are swinging 'round me

Like drunken ships

Ever, evergreen bows above me tower

Singin' quiet stories 'bout forgiveness

(au Refrain)

Alright, alright (x5)
