The Crow & the Butterfly

Lyrics

I painted your room at midnight
 So I'd know yesterday was over
 I put all your books on the top shelf
 Even the one with the four-leaf clover
 Man, I'm gettin' older
 I took all your pictures off the wall
 And wrapped them in a newspaper blanket
 I haven't slept in what seems like a century
 And now I can barely breathe
 Just like a crow chasing the butterfly
 Dandelions lost in the summer sky
 When you and I were gettin' high as outer space
 I never thought you'd slip away
 I guess I was just a little too late
 ♪
 Your words still serenade me
 Your lullabies won't let me sleep
 I've never heard such a haunting melody
 Oh, it's killin' me
 You know I can barely breathe
 Just like a crow chasing the butterfly
 Dandelions lost in the summer sky
 When you and I were gettin' high as outer space
 I never thought you'd slip away
 I guess I was just a little too late
 ♪
 Just like a crow chasing the butterfly
 Dandelions lost in the summer sky
 When you and I were gettin' high as outer space
 I never thought you'd slip away
 Like a crow chasing the butterfly
 Dandelions lost in the summer sky
 When you and I were gettin' high as outer space
 I never thought you'd slip away
 I guess I was just a little too late
 ♪
 Just a little too late
