Catch Another Butterfly Lyrics - Original Album Classics - John Denver

Do you remember days not so very long ago 

When the world was run by people twice your size 

And the days were full of laughter and the nights were full of stars 

And when you grew tired you could close your eyes 

Yes the stars were were there for wishing and the wind was there for kites 

And the morning sun was there for rise and shine 

And even in the sniffles kept you home from school in bed 

You couldn't hardly stay there after nine 

And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded 

What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky 

Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream 

Will I ever catch another butterfly

Do you remember campouts right in your own backyard 

And wondering how airplanes could fly 

And the hours spent just playing with a funny rock you found 

With crystal specks as blue as all the sky 

Yes, the days were each a treasure as they blended into years 

The memories that come so sharp and plain 

And while we were enjoying these moments, did we mourn 

That today would never come this way again 

And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded 

What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky 

Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream 

Will I ever catch another butterfly 

Now I watch my son, he's playing with his toys 

He's happy and I give him all I can 

But I can't help feeling just a little tingling inside 

When to hear him say, he wants to be a man 

Photos 

And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded 

What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky 

Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream 

Will I ever catch another butterfly
