I keep on chasing butterflies
They never come to me
My heart is always breaking
but no one's around to see
I keep on chasing butterflies
They always fly away
And though they know I love them
I can’t seem to make them stay
I keep on chasing butterflies
Why do I need them so?
If I were a better person
Maybe then they wouldn’t go
Margaret Hart
