Fell in love in the wink of an eye 
With the girl who was called Butterfly
She said she loved me so she could not let me go 
But still I had to say goodbye

Butterfly my Butterfly 
I'll come home to you one day
Butterfly my Butterfly 
Wait for me don't fly away

Never fly in the heat of the sun 
Close your wings when the long day is done
Stay home and wait for me till I get back 
And then counting the minutes one by one

Butterfly my Butterfly...

When a man longs to be free 
He will sail to the end of the sea
I won't be gone too long but while I travel on 
Just close your wings and wait for me

Butterfly my Butterfly...
Butterfly my Butterfly...
