Poor butterfly, 'neath the blossom waiting
Poor butterfly, for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours, the hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears, she murmurs low
The moon and I, know that he be faithful
I'm sure he'll come to me by and by
But if he don't come back, then I'll never sigh or cry
I just must die, poor butterfly
Poor butterfly, 'neath the blossom waiting
Poor butterfly, for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours, the hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears, she murmurs low
The moon and I, we know that he be faithful
I'm sure that he'll come to me by and by
But if he don't come back, then I'll never, never sigh or cry
I just must die, I'm a butterfly
Poor butterfly, 'neath the blossom waiting
Poor butterfly, for she loved him so
The moments pass into hours, and the hours pass into years
And as she smiles through her tears, she murmurs low
The moon and I, know that he be faithful
I'm sure he'll come, he'll be here by and by
But if he don't come back, then I'll never sigh or cry
I just must die, poor butterfly
I'm a butterfly
