Weezer - Butterfly Lyrics

Weezer - Butterfly Video

Yesterday I went outside with my Mama's mason jar,

Caught a lovely butterfly.

When I woke up today, looked in on my fairy pet,

She had withered all away, no more sighing in her breast.

 

I'm sorry for what I did; I did what my body told me to,

I didn't mean to do you harm.

Every time I pin down what I think I want it slips away.

The ghost slips away.

 

Smell you on my hand for days; I can't wash away your scent,

If I'm a dog then you're a bitch.

I guess you're as real as me; maybe I can live with that,

Maybe I need fantasy, life of chasin' butterfly.

 

I'm sorry for what I did; I did what my body told me to,

I didn't mean to do you harm.

Every time I pin down what I think I want it slips away.

The ghost slips away.

 

I told you I would return, when the robin makes his nest,

But I ain't never comin' back.

 

I'm sorry. x3
