carmen mcrae - poor butterfly - remastered 2003 lyrics

Loading...

there’s a story told of a little j-panese
sitting demurely ‘neath the cherry blossom trees
miss b-tterfly’s her name, a sweet little innocent child was she
’till a fine young american from the sea
to her garden came

they met ‘neath the cherry blossoms everyday
and he taught her how to love the american way
to love with her soul, ’twas easy to learn
then he sailed away with a promise to return

poor b-tterfly
‘neath the blossoms waiting
poor b-tterfly
for she loved him so

the moments p-ss into hours
the hours p-ss into years
and as she smiles through her tears
she murmurs low

the moon and i know that he’ll be faithful
i’m sure he’ll come to me by and by
but if he won’t come back then, then i’ll never sigh or cry
i just must die, poor b-tterfly
