Lyrics

0:04Yesterday I went outside
0:07With my momma's mason jar
0:10Caught a lovely butterfly
0:17When I woke up today
0:20Looked in on my fairy pet
0:23She had withered all away
0:26No more sighing in her breast
0:29I'm sorry for what I did
0:32I did what my body told me to
0:36I didn't mean to do you harm
0:39Every time I pin down what I think I want
0:43It slips away
0:45The ghost slips away
0:52I guess you're as real as me
0:55Maybe I can live with that
0:58Maybe I need fantasy
1:01Life of chasing butterfly
1:04I'm sorry for what I did
1:07I did what my body told me to
1:11I didn't mean to do you harm
1:14Every time I pin down what I think I want
1:19It slips away
1:21The ghost slips away
1:27I told you I would return
1:30When the Robin makes his nest
1:33But I ain't never coming back
Yesterday I went outside
With my momma's mason jar
Caught a lovely butterfly
When I woke up today
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
Every time I pin down what I think I want
It slips away
The ghost slips away
I guess you're as real as me
Maybe I can live with that
Maybe I need fantasy
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
Every time 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
