Ian Oliver - Papillon Lyrics

Sailin' like a butterfly
O'er the fields, across the sky
Through the groves of acorn trees
Say hi to the honeybees and fly

Land upon the birds nest
Wish the mom and kids my best
Dance upon the warm spring air
Hum a tune without a care and cry

(Ooh)

Over acres, golden wheat
Ripening but incomplete
Sun is setting in the sky
Painted with an orange dye
Bye-bye

Fireflies afloat below
Putting on their fireworks show
Looking like a glitter-stain
Sparkles so I can't complain
Not I

(Ooh)

Flyin' out towards the moon
Hoping I can reach there soon
Made some friends along the way
Who joined in on our escapade
We flew

Made it out there pretty far
Played hopscotch among the stars
Wasn't it a fun vacation
There inside the constellation
(Mm-hmm)

(Ooh)

So much fun the night raced by
Saw the daylight drawing nigh
Energy I couldn't keep
I dozed off and went to sleep it's true

Didn't reach the Moon, it's fine
I still had a golden time
There among the honeybees and fireflies
And memories of you

(Ooh)
