Butterfly (I’ll Set You Free)

Oh it's a sin to catch a butterfly
So I won't ever try to keep you in a jar!
I'll just let you flip and flow and ‘round
I'll never tie you down ‘cause that's the way you are!

Butterfly, I'll set you free
But once in a while
Please fly home to me!

All the snow has melted from the ground
When you first came around and held me it was spring!
April showers kept you here with me
Was it your love for me or water on your wings?

Butterfly, I'll set you free
But once in a while
Please make love to me!

It's a sin to catch a butterfly
So I'll just say good-bye and watch you fly away!
But should you feel by the winter's chill
Come to my window sill I'll never make you stay!

Butterfly, I'll set you free
But once in a while
Please come home to me!
