Edward Glen - Butterfly (Confederation Bridge/Rue Wesley St.) Lyrics

There once was a butterfly who stole away on a ship
And he flew too high and got carried by the wind
And he watched his only land fall away beneath
And so that little butterfly got lost at sea
That little butterfly got lost at sea
And all the time he was singing
I don't know
If I should go
Tell me there's a place for me
One lily pad in the sea
I don't know if I should go
And if I jump ship
If I had one wish
There'd be one in the sea
And lily pad was pretty with a flower in her hair
And sweet green eyes that soak up the sky and turn it into sugar
And she let him land and dried his wings and listened to him sing
And in return he flew around and brought her things
And when it was time for her to go east
She beckoned for him to come
And so he turned east
And flew into the rising sun
And when it was time for her to east
She beckoned for him to come
And so he spread his wings
And flew into the sun
And all the time he was singing
I don't know
If I should go
Tell me there's a place for me
One lily pad in the sea
I don't know
If I should go
Tell me there's a place for me
And if I jump ship
If I had one wish
She'd be there in the sea
I don't know
I should go
