The Crow And The Butterfly

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 getting older

I took all your pictures off the wall

And I wrapped them in a newspaper blanket

And I haven't slept in what seems like a century

And now I can barely breathe

Just like the crow chasing the butterfly

Dandilions lost in the summer sky

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space

I never thought you would slip away

I guess I was just a little too late

Your words still serinade me

And your lullabys they won't let me sleep

And I've never heard such a haunting melody

And it is killing me

You know I can barely breathe

Just like the crow chasing the butterfly

Dandilions lost in the summer sky

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space

I never thought you would slip away

I guess I was just a little too late

Just like the crow chasing the butterfly

Dandilions lost in the summer sky

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space

I never thought you would slip away

Like the crow chasing the butterfly

Dandilions lost in the summer sky

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space

I never thought you would slip away

I guess I was just little too late (OhhhOhhh)

I was just a little too late
