Butterflies Lyrics - Little Dragon

Sang a lullaby to a butterfly 

Child's wide brown eyes, secrets inside 

She said, "When I die, become a butterfly 

You can flutter and color in meadows and hills 

Beauty gave me the chills 

Flying on your own, then a thousand mourn 

Thousand souls swarming, thousands were performing" 

Bright white, emerald green 

Silk blown, sailing seas 

And the spotted wings 

Go, go blow in the wind 

Bright white, emerald green 

Silk blown, sailing seas 

And the spotted wing 

Go, go blow in the wind 

Go, go, go, go blow in the wind 

In their old house, from a lover's mouth 

He kept feathered in behind the bamboo screen 

She said, "When he died, became a butterfly 

He was fluttering, colouring meadows and hills 

Beauty gave us the chills 

Flying on your own, then a thousand mourn 

Thousand souls swarming, thousands were performing 

Thousand souls swarming, thousands were performing" 

Bright white, emerald green 

Silk blown, sailing seas 

And the spotted wings 

Go, go blow in the wind 

Bright white, emerald green 

Silk blown, sailing seas 

And the spotted wing 

Go, go blow in the wind 

Go, go
