Matt Easton - Butterfly lyrics

Thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly [Verse One:] I thought I saw a bu*terfly yesterday Came by fluttering then it flew away It had me reminiscing on the better days Coming by on the fly to communicate And just for a second had a flashback When life was simple, ain't nothing abstract Playing outside, till it was dinner time Ghosts in the graveyards on them summer nights Lay back, never in a hurry then No path, and never any worrying Every day was a fresh start Making friends on the reg Playing games in the neighbors yard Used to hustle lemonade on my block 25 cents with some ice in a cup A little bit of hopscotch in the parking lot Hickory Dickory Dock tales non stop Never worry 'bout a job neither And the worst news was a call home from the teacher Icey pops straight out the freezer Think about it, life couldn't have been easier And now I'm back to the present day And I just wanna grab a time machine and run away All these happy memories just pa**ed by All because I thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly [Verse Two:] I thought I saw a bu*terfly yesterday Came by fluttering then it flew away It had me reminiscing on the better days Coming by on the fly to communicate Like where did those childhood feelings go Where I wasn't dealing with a bunch of animals And everyone looked out for one another Gave away my lunch-able if someone looked hungry 4th of July, fireworks at butler Everyone in town gathering to see each other As it got larger, setting off sparklers Who could throw the football the farthest And when did that tear disappear It's a little weird, now I'm planning a career Where did the innocent laughter go Where I felt at ease, do I have to grow One question to ask that I have to know Is why can't we act the same as we grow old Why can't we be kids on the playground Looking for a hand to hold as we run around And just like that I'm at the present day I just wanna grab a time machine and run away All these happy memories just pa**ed by All because I thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly Thought I saw a bu*terfly
