Shinedown - The Crow And The Butterfly lyrics

rate me

I Painted Your Room At Midnight,

So I'd Know Yesterday Was Over.

I Put All Your Books On The Top Shelf,

Even The One With The Four Leaf Clover.

Man I'm Getting Older.

I took all your pictures off the wall,

And wrapped them in a newspaper blanket.

I haven't slept in what seems like a century.

And now I can barely breathe.

Just like a crow chasing the butterfly,

Dandelions lost in the summer sky.

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space,

I never thought you would slip away.

I guess I was just a little too late.

Your words still serenade me,

Your lullabies won't let me sleep.

I've never heard such a haunting melody,

oh it's killing me.

You know I can barely breathe.

Just like a crow chasing the butterfly,

Dandelions lost in the summer sky.

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space,

I never thought you would slip away.

I guess I was just a little too late,

Just like a crow chasing the butterfly,

Dandelions lost in the summer sky.

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space,

I never thought you would slip away.

Like a crow chasing the butterfly,

Dandelions lost in the summer sky.

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space,

I never thought you would slip away.

I guess I was just a little too late, (Ohh)

Just a little too late.
