Butterfly lyrics

[ORiGiNAL BY WEEZER]

Yesterday I went outside
With my momma`s mason jar
Caught a lovely Butterfly

When I woke up today
And looked in on my fairy pet
She had withered all away
No more sighing in her breast

I`m sorry for what I did
I did what my body told me to
I didn`t mean to do you harm
But everytime I pin down what I think I want
it slips away - the ghost slips away

I smell you on my hand for days
I can`t wash away your scent
if I`m a dog then you`re a b*tch

I guess you`re as real as me
maybe I can live with that
maybe I need fantasy
a life of chasing Butterfly

I`m sorry for what I did
I did what my body told me to
I didn`t mean to do you harm
But everytime I pin down what I think I want
it slips away - the ghost slips away

I told you I would return
When the robin makes his nest
but I ain`t never coming back
I`m sorry, I`m sorry, I`m sorry
