bu*terflies around her eyes – fairies fly
Pa**ing by pa**ing by
Friendly voices from the trees – birds in the sky
Pa**ing by pa**ing by
Down by the riverside, down by the boats
Pa**ing by pa**ing by
Dying fish on the hooks, and the bloody knife
A fisherman smiles, the fisherman smiles
You're crying, you're crying
Sad absentminded, she walks her way
Pa**ing by pa**ing by
Where have the fairies gone, no bu*terflies
Pa**ing by pa**ing by
She walks her way, she's walking home, she walks alone
A day has gone by, this day has gone by
Down by the riverside, down by the boats
She never pa**ed by, never pa**ed by
You're crying, you're crying
