​butterfly Lyrics by Emily Weisband

2021

[Intro: Emily Weisband]
Mmm
[Verse 1: Emily Weisband]
Right now you pick me up on time
Right now you beg me to spend the night, oh, oh
Right now you touch me every chance
Under the table, you hold my hand, oh
Right now, oh
[Pre-Chorus: Emily Weisband]
It's forty-five minute goodbyes
Dare me to watch the sunrise, butterflies
The fact is, baby, one day
[Chorus: Emily Weisband]
Butterflies fly away
Butterflies fly away
Boy, will you go, or will you stay
When the butterflies fly?
[Verse 2: Karen Fairchild]
Someday the happy'll start to show
And lines on my face I can't control, oh
We all get old (We all get old, old)
Someday we'll kiss and it won't feel knеw (Won't feel knew)
And I'll be a body that you're usеd to, oh (You're used to)
Right now, though
[Pre-Chorus: Karen Fairchild]
It's fourty five minute goodnights
Can't even look in your eyes
Butterflies
The fact is, baby, one day
[Chorus: Emily Weisband & Karen Fairchild]
Butterflies fly away
Butterflies fly away
But will you go, or will you stay?
When the butterflies fly (High)
Butterflies fly away
Butterflies fly away
But will you lose or keep the faith?
When the butterflies fly
[Outro: Emily Weisband & Karen Fairchild, Both]
Butterflies fly away (Oh, oh)
Butterflies fly away (They fly away)
So, boy, will we go or will we stay?
I wanna stay when the butterflies fly
I wanna stay, hey
