John Denver & The Muppets - Catch Another Butterfly lyrics

Do you remember days not so very long ago When the world was run by people twice your size And the days were full of laughter and the nights were full of stars And when you grew tired you could close your eyes Yes the stars were were there for wishing and the wind was there for kites And the morning sun was there for rise and shine And even in the sniffles kept you home from school in bed You couldn't hardly stay there after nine And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream Will I ever catch another bu*terfly Do you remember campouts right in your own backyard And wondering how airplanes could fly And the hours spent just playing with a funny rock you found With crystal specks as blue as all the sky Yes, the days were each a treasure as they blended into years The memories that come so sharp and plain And while we were enjoying these moments, did we mourn That today would never come this way again And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream Will I ever catch another bu*terfly Now I watch my son, he's playing with his toys He's happy and I give him all I can But I can't help feeling just a little tingling inside When to hear him say, he wants to be a man And I wonder if the smell of morning's faded What happened to the robin's song that sparkled in the sky Where's all the water gone that tumbled down the stream Will I ever catch another bu*terfly Will I ever catch another bu*terfly
