"Butterfly" lyrics - JON BATISTE

A butterfly flying home
But can you fly on your own?
And take your place in the world today
A butterfly flying home

A cherry plum and chewing gum
Miniskirts and 'cause that hum
I see you're driving 'round with your head held high
A butterfly flying home

[Bridge:]
Stay a while here with me
Of underneath the stars
When you go, you be free
'Cause you know who you are
You're butterfly

A color scheme from a dream
A tapestry to soul supreme
I mean, I've never seen
Something so damn beautiful, child
Lets a butterfly flying home

[Instrumental break]

You see, I'm howling at the moon
And day and night, ah-woo-hoo
They say I'm crazy as a loon
But I'm alright all dressed in white

[Outro:]
A butterfly in the air
Where you can fly anywhere
A sight beyond compare
A sacred song in a sacred tongue
It's a butterfly flying home
