Butterflies
Lyrics
(Ooh)
(Ooh)
Chasin' butterflies by the water
Watchin' aeroplanes because you gotta
Inside
Inside everything is wrong
Outside
Ooh, outside
You keep your eyes on the prize and your head in your hands, oh (oh)
You can't see the wood for the trees even when all the leaves are gone (oh)
'Cause you're still chasin' butterflies (oh)
Watchin' all the years roll by (oh)
And you've had all your life to dream about it
But you never did a thing about it
Just waste time
Waste time everything is wrong
But you're fine
Ooh, you're fine
You keep your eyes on the prize and your head in your hands, oh (oh)
You can't see the wood for the trees even when all the leaves are gone (oh)
'Cause you're still chasin' butterflies (oh)
Watchin' all the years roll by (oh)
But we soldier, soldier on
Yeah, we soldier, soldier on
Inside
Inside everything is wrong
But you're fine
Ooh, you're fine
You keep your eyes on the prize and your head in your hands, oh (oh)
You can't see the wood for the trees even when all the leaves are gone (oh)
'Cause you're still chasin' butterflies (oh)
Watchin' all the years roll by (oh)
Waitin' for your ship to arrive (oh)
You're still chasin' butterflies (oh)
But we soldier, soldier on
