《Butterflies(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Butterflies (Album Version) - Toad The Wet Sprocket

[00:00:32] I saw something

[00:00:33] Gigantic

[00:00:33] Out on the water

[00:00:36] I asked my dad for a nickel

[00:00:39] He gave it to me

[00:00:40] It was kind of misty

[00:00:42] I couldn't be sure what it was

[00:00:44] And of course he wouldn't tell me

[00:00:49] In time i will collect the world

[00:00:59] The eggs and wings of butterflies i love the wings

[00:01:04] Of butterflies

[00:01:11] A man drove up in an ugly car

[00:01:13] And he flashed his lights at everything he saw

[00:01:15] And his eyes were red

[00:01:16] And his stereo was so loud you couldn't hear the engine's roar

[00:01:19] And he yelled at everybody in the road

[00:01:24] And did not notice all the moths he'd massacred

[00:01:29] Spread across the open road

[00:01:34] Weird when you get close

[00:01:37] To something that BIG

[00:01:41] You can't see anything at all

[00:01:52] In time i will

[00:01:55] Collect the world

[00:02:00] The eggs and wings of you who fall on

[00:02:06] Butterflies calvary

[00:02:12] Had you wings of i give my children

[00:02:14] Butterflies

[00:02:16] A moth had settled upon his arm and he looked at it with a lazy eye

[00:02:20] And he lifted up a gigantic hand

[00:02:23] And he spread his fingers towards the sky

[00:02:26] And he nudged the moth to make it fly away

[00:02:28] But moths are fragile things

[00:02:29] And he just wiped its ody down across his shoulder blade

[00:02:32] He's a wonder he's a little black-wing boy

[00:02:34] Oh my daughters

[00:02:35] He'll fill you with joy

[00:02:36] In time i will

[00:03:13] Collect the world

[00:03:18] The hearts and limbs of

[00:03:22] Butterflies you who soar o'er

[00:03:58] Calvary

[00:04:05] Had you wings of

[00:04:06] Butterflies oh father i offer

[00:04:06] Butterflies
