Weezer - Butterfly lyrics

Yesterday I went outside

With my momma`s mason jar

Caught a lovely Butterfly

When I woke up today

And looked in on my fairy pet

She had withered all away

No more sighing in her breast

I`m sorry for what I did

I did what my body told me to

I didn`t mean to do you harm

But everytime I pin down what I think I want

it slips away - the ghost slips away

I smell you on my hand for days

I can`t wash away your scent

if I`m a dog then you`re a bitch

I guess you`re as real as me

maybe I can live with that

maybe I need fantasy

a life of chasing Butterfly

I told you I would return

When the robin makes his nest

but I ain`t never comin` back

I`m sorry, I`m sorry, I`m sorry
