You think no one understands a word you say, but I do, you're beautiful
Black butterfly, black butterfly, black butterfly

Without you there are no other colors, it's true
My black butterfly, black butterfly, black butterfly

You go where the wind blows then you'll return to me
You say you have to touch the sun and then you'll return to me

Brown dirt, blue water through shark colored sky, white flowers
Black butterfly, black butterfly, black butterfly

I remember holding you in one hand, do you understand?
My black butterfly, black butterfly, black butterfly

You go where the wind blows and then you'll return to me
You say you have to touch the sun and then you'll return to me

Without you there are no other colors, it's true, yes, it's true
Black butterfly, black butterfly, black butterfly
Black butterfly, black butterfly, black butterfly
