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 wrapped them in a newspaper blanket.

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

And now I can barely breathe.



Just like a crow chasing the butterfly,

Dandelions lost in the summer sky.

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space,

I never thought you'd slip away.

I guess I was just a little too late.



Your words still serenade me,

Your lullabies, won't let me sleep.

I've never heard such a haunting melody,

Oh it's killing me.

You know I can barely breathe.



Just like a crow chasing the butterfly,

Dandelions lost in the summer sky.

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space,

I never thought you'd slip away.

I guess I was just a little too late,

I was just a little too late.



Just like a crow chasing the butterfly,

Dandelions lost in the summer sky.

When you and I were gettin' high as outer space,

I never thought you'd slip away.



Like a crow chasing the butterfly,

Dandelions 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, (yeah, yeah)

I was just a little too late.

I was just a little too, little too late.

I guess I was just little too late.
