You are a splendid butterfly

It is your wings that make you beautiful

And I could make you fly away

But I could never make you stay

You said you were in love with me

Both of us that that's impossible

And I could make you rue the day

But I could never make you stay



Not for all the tea in China

Not if I could sing like a bird

Nbt for all North Carolina

Not for all my little words

Not if I could write for you

The sweetest song you ever heard

It doesn't matter what I'll do

Not for all my little words



Not that you've made me want to die

You tell me that you're unboyfriendable

And I could make you pay and pay

But I could never make you stay
