Here I am, lonely,
|
Tired and lonely,
|
Crying for home in vain,
|
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
|
|
Longing for flowers,
|
Dreaming of hours
|
Back in the sun-kissed lane,
|
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
|
|
I know that all of the world is cheery
|
By that old cottage door,
|
Why are my wings so weary?
|
I can't fly any more!
|
|
Here I am praying,
|
Brokenly saying,
|
"Give me the sun again!",
|
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
|
|
When it's raining from the sky,
|
And I see a butterfly,
|
I can almost hear him sighing
|
'Cause he has to stop his flying.
|
I can easily sympathise
|
With those helpless butterflies!
|
|
Here I am, lonely,
|
Tired and lonely,
|
Crying for home in vain,
|
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
|
|
Longing for flowers,
|
Dreaming of hours
|
Back in the sun-kissed lane,
|
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
|
|
I know all of the world is cheery
|
By that old cottage door,
|
Why are my wings so weary?
|
I can't fly any more!
|
|
Here I am praying,
|
Brokenly saying,
|
"Give me the sun again!",
|
Just like a butterfly that's caught in the rain!
|
Give me the sun again!
|
Caught in the rain!
