Butterfly Fly Away sing and play along

You tucked me in, turned out the light;

kept me safe and sound at night.

Little girls depend on things like that.

Brushed my teeth and combed my hair;

had to drive me ev'rywhere.

You were always there when I looked back.

You had to do it all alone,

make a living, make a home.

It must have been as hard as it could be.

And when I couldn't sleep at night,

scared things wouldn't turn out right,

you would hold my hand and sing me:

"Caterpillar in the tree, how you wonder who you'll be.

Can't go far, but you can always dream.

Wish you may and wish you might;

don't you worry, hold on tight.

I promise you there will come a day,

butterfly, fly away."

Butterfly, fly away.

Got your wings now, you can't stay.

Take those dreams and make them all come true.

Butterfly, fly away.

You've been waiting for this day.

All along, you've known just what to do.

Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly,

butterfly, fly away.
