Artist/Band: John Denver
Lyrics for Song: Catch Another Butterfly
Lyrics for Album: Coll: Ryhmes Reasons / Poems Prayers / Rocky Mount [1971]



Do you remember days not so very long ago

When the world was run by people twice your size?

And the days were full of laughter

And the nights were full of stars

And when you grew tired you could close your eyes

Yes the stars were there for wishing

And the wind was there for kites

And the morning sun was there for rise and shine

And even if the sniffles kept you

Home from school in bed

You couldn't hardly stay there after nine

And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded

What happened to the robin's song

That sparkled in the sky?

Where's all the water gone

That tumbled down a stream?

Will I ever catch another butterfly?

Do you remember campouts right in your own backyard?

Wondering how airplanes could fly

And the hours spent just playin'

With a funny rock you found

With crystal specks as blue as all the sky

And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded

What happened to the robin's song

That sparkled in the sky?

Where's all the water gone

That tumbled down a stream?

Will I ever catch another butterfly?

Now I watch my son, he's playin' with his toys

He's happy, I give him all I can

But I can't help feelin'

Just a little tingly inside

When I hear him say he wants to be a man

And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded

What happened to the robin's song

That sparkled in the sky?

Where's all the water gone

That tumbled down a stream?

Will I ever catch another butterfly?

Will I ever catch another butterfly?
