Butterfly Lyrics


Stephen Ridley Butterfly

The sun wakes me up from the night before

Stale whiskey on my breath

Used condoms on the floor

Regret in my bed, I don’t remember her name

It’s all the same

I realize I don’t recognize the room in which I lay

So I tip toe out the door

Stealing her cigarettes on the way

I take one and suck as I hold it to the flame

The nicotine clears my head

But the thoughts of you remain

And Lord knows I’ve tried to get you out my mind

But for all I’ve lost to drugs and drink

I can’t get you from inside

Your cheating hear was more than my pride could bear

But I’ve been through girls and potions and pills

And none of them compare

I love you so

But it seems that won’t suffice

Cos my love and my lust and my hard earned stuff

Can’t keep your wandering eye

I love you so

I can’t break from this cell

Oh I want to be free, but you’ve got the key

And you like me under your spell
